Plain, boring green salads can cost from $2.25 to $3.50 at the local eatery. This one packs more freshness and is a very high source of fibre and an excellent source of iron, vitamin C and folate.

- 1 sweet red pepper, diced
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled (4 oz/125 g)

- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar or white wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce
- 1/2 cup chopped cucumbers
