Notes

For a more robust flavor, let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes after tossing with the dressing to allow the flavors to meld together. Feel free to add your favorite nuts or seeds for extra crunch, or some grilled chicken or shrimp for added protein. Remember to taste the salad before adding additional salt, as feta cheese and olives can be quite salty.
