Very refreshing....I'm not a fan of olives so I left those out and tossed with with baby spinach instead.

    Absolutely delicious! I added some leftover chicken for a wonderful salad supper using about one teaspoon of dried dill. Can't wait till the summer comes to try this again using garden fresh dill and parsley. Thanks for sharing!

    Wonderful recipe! It was done in 20 minutes, no joke. Great flavor, inexpensive ingredients, and versitile enough to use as a light meal or a side dish. I've made it a few times, each with success: -I prepared it just as posted and it was fantastic. -For a vegan alteration: I doubled the amount of tomatoes and olives (using kalamata in addition to the green). We didn't even miss the feta, but I found that it could be sprinkled over or mixed into the salad at the time of serving and it was even more delicious. Thanks so much!
