Italian Style Salad with Great Day Farms Eggs

Do you ever get in a cooking rut?  I do!  Of course, I started blogging and cooking regularly just to get out of the cooking rut!  Luckily, for the most part I can come up with recipes on the spot; however, I still like EASY recipes too!

One of my favorite go to items lately and staples at the store is romaine lettuce.  I love it!  My favorite way to eat it is grilled, but it’s quickly become my go to lettuce choice for salads.  Along with the romaine lettuce, I also have fell in love with the Great Day Farms Hard Boiled Eggs.  These can be found in the deli section of most Walmart stores and I can tell you they are delicious!

So delicious in fact that I was able to get my picky eater to eat one!  Woot!  I also love how easy they are to toss on salads or sandwiches for lunch or in the mornings for breakfast.

This past week we had a great abundance of cherry tomatoes in our garden along with green onions.  So, I decided to saute them with a little olive oil to make a delicious, light dressing to top our salads.

The result?  A light, zesty treat that was low in fat and high in protein!  Perfect!

Now, to top all those veggies, I opted to use some freshly sliced cold cuts in our fridge.  I mixed some turkey with roast beef to add some meat to the salad.  I love meat on my salads especially in this case when the salad was my main dish for lunch.  Lastly, I topped it with Italian Shredded Cheese and Sunflower Nuts!  Delicious!

Enjoy!
