Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found this salad to be a bit too dry. I would add some more olive oil or lemon juice to the dressing.

This salad is a bit too bland for my taste. I would add some more herbs and spices to the dressing.

I'm not a fan of feta cheese, so I used crumbled goat cheese instead. It was still delicious!

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I like to make it the night before and then let it chill in the fridge overnight. The flavors meld together and it's even better the next day.

I love this salad! It's so versatile and I can always find something to add to it. My favorite is to add some grilled chicken or shrimp.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover bulgur. I also added some chopped cucumber and red onion, and it was delicious.
