Israeli chopped salad with feta, za'atar and sumac

Ethan Patterson

Report

One of my family's favourite breakfast dishes is a fresh Israeli chopped salad with feta, za'atar and sumac. It's quick, easy, and a perfect blueprint for additions and experimentation. Whatever you do, just don't make it too complicated - this dish is meant to be fast and easy! I also like to add olives, for their briny-ness.
