Introduction

I tasted a great salad at Sweet Tomatoes and then later at our Farmer's store, I decided to mix a few ingredients of my own and try it at home. This is just a basic mix where you can had feta, goat or any crumbly cheese, fresh veggies and a light vinegar dressing to make a great salad.
