    Do love a good salad without all of the filler? Lettuce is great, but sometimes you just want the good stuff. This Mediterranean Salad has an amazing mix of flavors if you crave foods from the Mediterranean. Loaded with beans, veggies, and my favorite cheese, it will fill you up quickly and give you the energy to keep going. Everything is betta with feta!
