Olive, Preserved Lemon, and Goat Cheese Salad image

I found this recipe on the web somewhere, saved it, and have since forgotten where I found it. No matter -- it is divine! Serve with my Recipe#232706 if you like, or just dig in with a spoon or your fingers. Cooking time = letting the mixture sit for a while, just for the flavors to blend. Mmmmm.

I didn't have any arugula, so I used spinach instead. It worked just as well.

I'm allergic to goat cheese, so I used feta cheese instead. The salad was still delicious!

I added some grilled chicken to this salad and it was amazing! The chicken added a nice protein boost and made the salad even more filling.

This salad was a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The preserved lemons added a bright and tangy flavor, while the goat cheese provided a creamy richness. The olives added a salty and savory flavor, and the arugula added a peppery bite.
