Tips
- Why it works
- Cut cucumbers and peppers into even chunks so they soften at the same rate and don’t make the salad watery.
- Substitutions
- Use pickles (30g) instead of olives for a tangier taste; swap feta for goat cheese (60g) if unavailable.
- Common mistakes
- Over-salting makes the feta release water; taste before adding more and wait 5 minutes to check.
- Storing and reheating
- Eat within 1 day or it wilts; store dressing separately if prepping ahead.
- Serve with
- Pair with grilled chicken or as a side for fish to balance the meal’s acidity.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
