Light, fresh and delicious! I did eyeball the oil and lemon juice (to taste) and added just a bit of salt, but those were my only changes. I was skeptical of this one, but it's really, really good! I will def be making this again~YUM! Thanks for sharing. - 23 Aug 2016 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I added a bit more spinach than the recipe calls for and probably should have added even more. I used a Quinoa/Bulger Wheat blend also. - 14 May 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This is good, but kind of bland. In the future, I'll add salt and pepper to the dressing at the very least. Maybe some cayenne or basil or mustard or something, too. As written, the feta pretty much overpowers all of the other flavors. - 06 Mar 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
