By: Enjolinfam
Jun 6, 2008
This traditional salad is served throughout Albania. It is often served as first course. Typically this salad has equal proportions of tomato and cucumber. The rest of the ingredients are stictly added based on personal preference. I got this recipe from some missionaries that have lived in Albania for a long time. They made a cookbook with other missionaries called "From bugs to beans." Posted for ZWT 4.

I had this for lunch the other day. I used red pepper instead of the green, simply personal preference. I also added a splash of balsamic vinigar, which went well with the olive oil. Great tasty summer recipe, thanks for posting.

I ate this for a light supper in 96 degree heat today. I left out the green pepper, as I had none, and a cucumber fresh from the garden! Delicious and healthy too! Thanks Mollie!

This is a perfect summertime salad. It has a nice crunch and is a real crowd pleaser. I used spanish olives and along with the feta loved the bits of saltiness throughout the salad. I'll be making this one all summer long! Viva los Jefes!

so refreshing as a side for chicken and cous cous dinner in 112 degree heat! Used grape tomatoes cut in half. Added a little vinegar when I dressed it. Yummy thanks
