This was a beautiful and tasty salad. My husband & I like to use the Garlic & Herb Good Seasonings dry packet (prepared) in place of Italian dressing. I used my own sourdough bread and Cabot's Garlic & Herb cheese and spinkled with parmesan..only because I had ran out of the feta. Next time I might try to make my own croutons with fresh rosemary, parsley & thyme. This would be a nice salad for when company comes. Thanks for sharing! This ones a keeper.
