Dive into summer with this fresh take on Greek salad, featuring crisp romaine lettuce and peak-season tomatoes and cucumbers from your local farmer’s market. The real star in this dish is the marinated sheep’s milk feta, which not only amps up the flavor but also doubles as a zesty dressing. Don’t forget to season your veggies - it makes such a difference in bringing out all the ingredients’ natural flavors.
