  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp harissa (or more if you like it spicy)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 c olive oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped parley
  • Salt and pepper
  • Mixed greens
  • 1/4 c feta, crumbled (optional)

Toss everything but the salad greens together in a large bowl. Serve on top of salad greens.
