Combine all ingredients and toss with ½ cup Mediterranean Dressing.
Mediterranean Dressing
Press garlic and let sit for 5 minutes.
Whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, sea salt and pepper.
Slowly pour the extra virgin olive oil into the mixture while whisking constantly.
The more slowly you pour and the faster you whisk, the thicker and creamier the dressing will be.
