I have looked for the cheese you used in this recipe… may not be available in my area/state. Wondering what you recommend to replace the Roth Chèvre Honey Goat Cheese in case I cannot locate it in any of our grocery stores or Walmart grocery section? Please advise as I would love to make this recipe soon.

Thank you.

Can you make these recipes without any cheeses or oils? I’m a vegan and can’t have any animal protein or even “good” oils. Su ggestions for seasonings to add? Perhaps some tofu ?

Great salad recipe! Adding the goat cheese and mint right before serving is a good tip. If I make it again, I will skip the dates. They made it a bit too sweet for me. Otherwise thought it was perfect.

Does this work well with canned chickpeas as well ?

In reply to Cathy. Hi Cathy, yep! You can use a heaping 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin instead of the whole seeds. No need to toast it—you can just add it straight to the bowl with the dressing.

I imagine toasted cumin seed is ideal, but can you sub with just cumin seasoning?

In reply to Jill. Hi Jill, yep, you could substitute regular feta for the goat cheese. No need to add honey!

Hi,
Is Feta an okay substitute for the goat cheese.? The recipe comments are fabulous, but I don’t like goat cheese. Would you add honey to the feta? Thank you
