21 Day Fix Mediterranean Salad with Tzatziki Dressing

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

This dreamy 21 Day Fix Mediterranean Salad with Tzatziki Dressing has so many of my favorite things…no wonder it’s my new favorite salad!

Confession #83 – Even though this salad is insanely delicious, it’s the dressing that I dream about.

21 Day Fix Mediterranean Tabouli

I could eat it all day.  By itself.  With a spoon, maybe…or I might just drink it right from the blender.

I’m not above that at all.  And I’m okay admitting it.

What’s even better?  It’s basically just plain Greek yogurt cucumber, fresh dill and lemon, so there are far worse things I could be drinking.  Am I right?

Tzatziki

I wasn’t sure how the flavors of the dressing would be with the salad, which is essentially a take on tabouli,  but they go together perfectly and I was instantly transported to my favorite Mediterranean restaurant from our old neighborhood in Philly.

Tabouli Salad

This salad is reason #953 to prep grilled chicken and quinoa for use throughout the week.   By doing so, you can get dinner on the table in minutes without turning on your stove, oven, or grill.   Just some chopping and blending and you are good to go.

For all of you who would rather assemble your meals instead of cook them, this one is for you!

    Hey Nancylynn! Quick question- in the pics you have red onion, but I don’t see it in the list of ingredients. How much do you add?
