  • Choose a good quality feta cheese: Feta cheese is a key ingredient in this salad, so it's important to choose a good quality cheese. Look for a cheese that is creamy and flavorful.
  • Use a variety of herbs: The herbs in this salad add a lot of flavor, so don't be afraid to use a variety of them. Some good options include oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way in this salad. Too much dressing will overwhelm the other ingredients.
