Nutritional Note – Why Walnuts & Feta Work Together:

Walnuts bring plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and a satisfying crunch, while feta adds a creamy, salty contrast rich in calcium and protein. Together, they help stabilize blood sugar, support satiety, and make this salad ideal for balanced weight loss and clean eating.
