Beat The Heat – Loaded Salads
I made the mistake of using my oven for a while during the heatwave and let me tell you, that was a mistake. My house was sweltering and I felt nauseous afterwards lol
That's where loaded salads come in. A whole head of romaine, loads of crispy fresh veggies, cheese, and a protein component. Peep my new Crispy Chik'n Greek & head to the blog for a collection of loaded salads to beat the heat and minimize cooking!

- Preheat your oven according to package directions for your crispy filets. Get them onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake according to directions until crispy and golden brown.
- Toss your romaine lettuce with as much grana padano as your heart desires along with a pinch of oregano, black pepper, and dressing. Don't overdress. Divide between two plates.
- Arrange cucumbers around the salad. Slice your crispy filets and nestle them on top of the salad followed by pickled hot peppers, more red onions, and crumbled feta cheese. ENJOY!
