I'm not a big fan of ham, but I really enjoyed this dish. The feta cheese and tomatoes balanced out the saltiness of the ham perfectly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this dish turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong type of tomatoes.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less ham next time.
