Roasted Tomatoes & Feta Walnut Salad

This salad is all about the warm roasted tomatoes and the crumbled feta cheese. Something magical happens when they cozy up together, it's like the feta starts to melt a little and becomes even creamier. I love pairing balsamic vinegar and feta. It's an unexpected combination but the salty brine from the feta pairs so naturally with the sweet rich flavour of the balsamic vinegar. I used spinach and arugula for this salad, they stand up well under a little heat so they're the perfect greens to pair with these warm roasted tomatoes, Sprinkling some walnuts on top finishes it off, adding a crunchy bite. You have to try this salad! The warm tomatoes with the feta, omg - so good!
