My go to weeknight dinner is this Greek duck salad, and I think you'll love it too. Duck breast is incredibly lean and packed with iron, making it a powerhouse protein that keeps you satisfied and energized. What I adore most about this recipe is how quick it comes together in under an hour, and the ingredients are things I usually have on hand, so it won't break the bank. The crispy seared duck pairs beautifully with crisp greens, tangy feta, and a zesty red wine vinaigrette that tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen when really you didn't. Serve it with warm pita bread for scooping, and you've got a restaurant quality meal ready faster than takeout.
