This green Greek-style salad highlights ingredients that have been staples in Mediterranean kitchens since antiquity. Dill and feta were commonly paired in Greek home cooking long before tomatoes became widespread, making this fresh, herb-forward salad closer to the oldest forms of Greek salads.

For creamy, mildly tangy crepe fillings, try: Farmer Cheese (soft, slightly crumbly, blends well with sweet flavors); Ricotta (smooth and creamy with a mild taste).
