This is one loaded salad I came up with. It has several veggies and other goodies in it for a huge arsenal of vitamins and antioxidants. For instance, carrots (for beta-carotene), alfalfa (for antioxidants), lettuce (for vitamin k), tomatoes (for lycopene), olive oil and almonds (for healthy fats), feta and bacon (for protein) and much more have been tossed into this monster of a salad. It might be pricey getting all these ingredients, but the health benefits are all worth it. I didn't put any exact measurements as I will leave the desired amount of ingredients up to you.

Ingredients:
Red Lettuce
Iceberg Lettuce
Black Olives
Carrots (sliced)
Alfalfa Sprouts
Tomatoes (sliced)
Almond Slivers
Feta Cheese
Bacon
Olive Oil
Balsamic Vinegar

Directions:

1) Put all veggies, cheese, and bacon in a bowl.

2) Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Simple to prepare, and tasty! Pricey or not, almost every Mediterranean kitchen has these ingredients piled up.

My favorite salad is Caesar salad with chicken:
