FAQS
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes, you can substitute feta with goat cheese or a similar crumbly cheese.
Can I use raw pumpkin instead of roasted?
Roasted pumpkin adds a sweet and tender texture to the salad. If using raw pumpkin, it may be too hard and not as flavorful.
How can I make this salad vegan?
You can replace feta with a plant-based cheese or simply omit it for a vegan version.
Can I prepare this salad in advance?
It's best to assemble the salad just before serving to keep the spinach fresh and crisp. You can prepare the ingredients in advance and store them separately.
What other dressings can I use?
You can try balsamic vinaigrette or a lemon-based dressing for a different flavor profile.
