I love this picture. I'm pretty positive it's during we 'We are family' song. Dancing with my sisters, and I see my Moms sleeve so I know she was near. So much love ❤️💍

GREEK SALAD DIP

Serves 6 as an appetizer

I’ll bring this dip to summer parties, but it’s also great to keep stocked at home for a quick lunch. Stuff the mixture into a pita or into romaine leaves to make a meal of it. Not that crackers and a dip like this are not a sufficient lunch. You could add some cooked quinoa and a little more dressing and consider it a side dish, making it even more perfect for backyard BBQs.

Ingredients

1 cup cooked French Lentils

2-3 persian cucumbers

2 roma tomatoes, or something similar

½ a red bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed

1/3 cup minced red onion

½ cup chopped kalamata olives

¼ cup fresh chopped flat-leaf parsley

3 Tbsp. fresh chopped oregano leaves

½ tsp. sea salt

pinch of red pepper flakes

2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

1 Tbsp. white wine vinegar

½-¾ cup crumbled feta cheese, to taste

Instructions

Put the lentils into a large mixing bowl. 

Scoop out the seedy center and finely dice the cucumbers. Do the same with the tomatoes and red pepper. The smaller the dice, the easier to scoop with a cracker. Add them to the mixing bowl. 

Add the red onion, olives, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper flakes, olive oil and vinegar and stir to mix. 

Gently stir in the crumbled feta and taste for seasonings.

Serve at room temperature or chilled. The salad will keep for 4-5 days in the fridge, the vegetables getting a bit softer by the day but still enjoyable.

I did not want to do it, I hated every stupid second of it, but I hit play on week two of insanity. I have ten million other things I could have done and need to do. Even if I quit now this is the longest I've ever done it, so that's pretty cool!

This morning I was almost able to keep up with @caitedawson!(big deal, I'm a slow poke) it was awesome! Less then a 9 min mile? Woohoo! Plus, I noticed my booty looked kinda cute. A nice fast run, working in the maximum zone almost the entire time and a cute booty pic? It's a good day!
