I've made this salad numerous times for guests and it is always a hit. Feta is definitely a nice addition. You gotta get the hazelnut oil. It is worth the cost. :-)
Hazelnut-Orange Salad
Orange marmalade adds sweetness and body to the vinaigrette; you can microwave it for five to 10 seconds if it's too thick to whisk.
