Israeli Salad

This is a very simple and refreshing salad. My grandfather used to prepare this for us as kids. It goes well in a pita with hummus, or on the side with just about anything. Alot of the ingredients are also interchangable, and depend on your taste buds. I really like this salad tossed in some tahini sauce.

We love this recipe and call it "chop-chop salad". I usually add a diced pickle, it makes a great touch. My boyfriend loves it, although he always says I never cut the ingredients as nicely as his grandmother always did. But how could I compete with a Jewish Grandmother's cooking???

    This was wonderful! I drizzled some regular mustard over this and enjoyed it. Thanks for posting!

    Delicious! I used Spanish pimento-stuffed olives as they were the only green olives I had at the time, and I omitted the chives and the zaatar. I used a yellow pepper instead of green pepper, and used a handful or two of carrot shreds for the carrot. I let it chill for 2-3 hours before serving it with Shishlik (Israeli Skewers) on pita bread. Thanks so much for sharing, Mizzy!

    Tastes just like what I eat in Israel for breakfast! I added a little corn to it, because that's how they made it in the kibbutz I used to live in, served with cottage cheese. Ta'im me'od! (hebrew for very tastey!)
