Christina's Notes
- Dry Chickpeas: Removing excess moisture keeps the salad fresh and flavorful.
- Use Block Feta: Fresh block feta creates the best creamy texture.
- Chill Briefly: Letting the salad rest improves flavor.
- Taste Before Salting: Feta already contributes salty flavor.
- Serve Fresh: The vegetables stay crispest the first day.
