Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe vegetables.
If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount called for in the recipe.
If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked quinoa or rice instead of cooking it from scratch.
To make the salad more filling, add some cooked chicken, fish, or tofu.
For a vegan version of the salad, omit the feta cheese and use a plant-based dressing instead.
