Serve this informal salad board as an appetizer at your next Mediterranean feast or anytime you’re craving a healthy no-fuss dinner that you can eat with your hands. Opt for the freshest produce you can find, and feel free to swap in whatever vegetables are currently in season near you. To really dial up the fresh factor, make your own pita bread and oil-free hummus to serve alongside the veggies. Green Goddess Dip also pairs well with this platter.
