Notes
Variations: Swap feta for goat cheese or omit for a dairy-free version. Add tzatziki for extra creaminess, or incorporate harissa for a spicy kick. Try adding artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers, quinoa, or couscous for variation.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. It's best eaten fresh but holds up well after a few hours. Freezing is not recommended due to the fresh veggies.
