This modern version of a Greek salad was inspired by a salad I ate at Asteras Beach Club on the coast of Glyfada, which is known as the Athens Riviera. It is fresh uber healthy and a perfect example of the Mediterranean diet. I find it quite filling as is, but you can add some grilled chicken or salmon if you desire more protein.
BLOOD ORANGE MARGARITA

Why do I love blood orange margaritas? Blood oranges are gorgeous. I love their red, orange and pink color. Blood oranges are tarter than regular orange juice, so they work to keep the margarita not too sweet, but still refreshing. Make these vibrant cocktails between December and May when blood oranges are in season.
