You had me at Feta and Kalamata Olives both of which I love. Thanks for sharing the delicious recipe at #AnythingGoes
Thanks Sue! It is a great salad.
Yum looks really good!
Love all kinds of salads.
I’ve thought it would be nice to add some feta cheese to the salad and then saw the picture
and it seems that there is some type of cheese in it, right? (or is it something else? ) ’cause it’s not written in the ingredients list
Have a great day 🙂
Let me fix that! It is feta cheese. I thought I had checked that. Thanks for noticing.
Beautiful and healthy salad. xo Catherine
