Grilled cheese Mastelo green salad

June 17, 2020

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Grilled cheese Mastelo green salad, a super delicious fresh salad to enjoy during summer. A dish that you may serve it as a side dish but also as a main.

Summer can be easily described as the season of abundance. A stroll around the food market is enough in order to be filled with colors and aromas. Green tender lettuce leaves, fragrant peaches, stalks of spring onions and fresh basil, that only a touch is enough in order to seduce you. You don’t know what to eat first.

That’s kind of how I felt on my last stroll in the food market. I was so happy for so many flavors and aromas but at the same time I couldn’t decide what to eat first. And then I thought, why to choose and not to combine everything together in one dish? And then a very summery salad has been born.

But in order for this salad to become a complete meal, I had to add something more. I don’t know about you, but for me adding some cheese to a salad is considered a must. From my favorite Greek salad with feta, to today’s delicate green salad with grilled Mastelo cheese.

Recipe notes

In order to make a salad extremely enjoyable one thing is the super important, freshness of the ingredients. Whatever vegetable you choose, make sure it is fresh and tender.

Moreover, if you want to serve a salad as main dish you should add on the plate a source of protein. Cheese is one of the best sources of protein, but beware of quantity, do not overdo it. 

Finally, don’t hesitate to add other ingredients to your salad too. For example, cucumber, seeds or even avocado.
