Classic Greek Salad: A Fresh, Mediterranean Delight

Serve the salad immediately for the freshest taste, but it can also be refrigerated for up to 2 hours before serving.
If preparing ahead, store the dressing separately and toss it with the salad just before serving to prevent wilting.
Variations:

Add some sliced bell peppers or capers for extra flavor and color.
For a heartier version, include some chickpeas or grilled chicken for added protein.
Swap the feta for a vegan cheese alternative for a dairy-free option.
