Christo House Salad

I remember seeing Jessica of How Sweet Eats post her “House Salad” a few years ago and I absolutely LOVED the idea and have been meaning to share my own for ages!

I know that this is so easy, but I still feel like anything that I am eating more than once a week consistently for months and months or years even, deserves sharing!

Christo House Salad

This salad is delicious on its own, but it is obviously pretty flexible. You could add some chopped cucumber, or top with roasted pumpkin seeds, a sprinkle of the Trader Joes Everything Bagel Mix, or even add shredded chicken or grilled shrimp to make it a full meal. However, I tend to eat so much of it that it is really a meal in itself if you are me.

I hope you try this and let me know what you think and how you mix things up to create your own version!
