I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salad turned out really watery. Any suggestions?

This salad is too bland for my taste. I would add some more spices next time.

I'm allergic to feta cheese. What can I use instead?

I used a store-bought dressing for this salad. It was still good, but I think it would be even better with a homemade dressing.

I'm not a big fan of cucumbers, but I loved them in this salad. They added a nice freshness.

This salad is a great make-ahead lunch. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

I'm not a huge fan of feta cheese, so I used crumbled goat cheese instead. It was still very good.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover bulgar. It's also a good source of protein and fiber.
