This salad is so simple to make, but it's packed with flavor. The grilled eggplant adds a smoky depth of flavor, the feta adds a creamy richness, and the spinach adds a fresh, peppery flavor. The dressing is also really good and brings all the flavor

I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, but this salad was really good! The eggplant was grilled perfectly and it had a great flavor. The spinach and feta were also really fresh and tasty. I will definitely be making this again.
