Mediterranean Salad

Mediterranean Salad

This salad is so fresh and delicious, and pairs wonderfully with so many of our meals.  What we like most about it, is that you can make a nice big batch and it keeps well in the fridge for a good 3 days (if you don't devour it sooner!) Be sure to get your fresh veggies in when you follow a keto diet, yes - even when eating SugarFreeIQ meals.
