This Farro Tabbouleh is a hearty twist on the Mediterranean classic. Nutty farro is tossed with sherry vinegar, olive oil, cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, parsley, and feta. Fresh, light, and satisfying, it’s perfect as a standalone meal or paired with grilled chicken, shrimp, or steak.
This quick summer side dish from Julia Turshen’s What Goes with What makes the most of fresh zucchini and a tub of feta. Cracked black pepper blooms in olive oil to season the sautéed zucchini, which gets piled onto a bed of tangy whipped feta. Bright, bold, and easy.
Yasmin Fahr’s Lemony Chicken-Feta Meatball Soup is comfort meets freshness: tender chicken meatballs with feta, dill, and oats simmered in a lemony broth with spinach, cumin, turmeric, and red pepper flakes. Bright, hearty, and perfect for spring evenings, it’s a nourishing meal you’ll crave again and again.

The base of the salad is tasty by itself, featuring ribbons of Tuscan kale, cooked green lentils, feta and Castelvetrano olives. However, the spiced oil takes this to the absolute next level! It’s infused with scallion, lemon, garlic, cumin and crushed red chili flakes with coarsely chopped almonds – ensuring every bite of this salad is a dream.
