Notes
- The nutritional analysis is only an estimate based on available ingredients and the recipe’s preparation.
- I love cherry tomato varieties like sweet bombs and summer medley. Grape tomatoes will also work. This salad can be made with regular-sized tomatoes. Try the Campari variety. They are small and sweet and the closest I have found to summer Greek tomatoes.

- Use the olives you love. A great substitute is capers.

- Instead of spring onion, a minced shallot is fantastic. Small-diced red onion is also delicious.

- Swap the Greek feta for goat cheese. For a less salty flavor, use mozzarella balls or glorious burrata.

- Fresh herbs always elevate a salad. Add fresh oregano leaves for basil, or sprinkle chopped dill. Cilantro will also be a lovely substitute if you can taste it (I can't; it tastes like soap).
