Chef Tips

Cut Evenly: Chop vegetables into similar sizes so every bite is balanced.
Use Quality Feta: Feta stored in brine has the best texture and flavor.
Make It Vegan: Skip the feta and add ¾ cup chickpeas with 1 tbsp capers for a dairy-free option.
Add Variety: Use colorful bell peppers or fresh herbs like parsley or oregano.

Serving Suggestions

Serve as a side salad with grilled meats, seafood, or roasted vegetables.
Pair with Mediterranean mains like moussaka, souvlaki, or spanakopita.
Enjoy as a light vegetarian lunch with pita bread or hummus on the side.

Storage & Reheating

Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Tip: For best texture, store the dressing separately and drizzle just before serving.
Reheating: This salad is served cold and should not be reheated.
