Oooh, remember that seductive Grill’d salad I was crushing on last week?  Here’s a flashback:

 

Grill'd Vegan Salad

 

It had me non-stop daydreaming about making a version of my own.  Only this one’s better because it has tofu feta!  Everything is better with feta!  Sing it, sister!

This is a great salad to enjoy all year round as the warm veggies and quinoa add comfort even if it’s chilly outside, dukkah lends an exotic touch and feta brings the party home!

Thanks for the inspiration, Grill’d!
