cucumbers, keep in mind that they can release liquid as the salad sits.
Use a different cheese
Feta is the star here, but you can make a few changes.
Goat cheese for a softer, tangier flavor
Fresh mozzarella for a milder taste
Parmesan for a sharper, saltier finish
For the most recognizable Mediterranean-style flavor, though, I’d stick with feta.
Add something crunchy
If you enjoy extra texture, try adding:
Toasted sunflower seeds
Chopped walnuts
Toasted pine nuts
Crushed pita chips
Add crunchy toppings just before serving so they don’t soften.
Make it a little creamier
The lemon and olive oil
