  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ½ clove garlic grated
  • tsp salt
  • tsp pepper

Salad

  • 5 medium patty pans cut into 1-inch wedges (you can use smaller ones too; they may cook faster)

  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ¾ cup crumbled feta
  • cup toasted pine nuts
  • ½ cup fresh oregano leaves

Instructions
 

Dressing

  • Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.

Notes

You can definitely make this salad ahead – just add the herbs at the last minute before serving.
