I have been reunited with feta cheese and it feels so good. After spending so many months dairy-free, feta was truly one of the things I looked most forward to being able to have again – and it’s one of the best parts of this super simple grilled chicken Greek salad!
This salad is a frequent go-to for me in the summer months. It’s easy to put together, and I love making a bigger version for dinner so there are enough leftovers for lunch the next day. The combination of seasonings makes it perfectly tangy which balances the feta really well – I usually use dried spices, but if you have fresh available that would work even better!
