I really liked this recipe alot. I used green olives that were not spicy, because they were already on hand in my refrigerator. I also used a little more than a 1/4 cup of Italian dressing (more like 1/3 which doesn't sound like too much of a difference).

    Great Lunch! I used a basil vinaigrette and used all the ingredients except had to sub fresh garden tomatoes for cherry tomatoes. I would have to say the olives really make this salad stand out. Every bite was flavored by the spicy green olives. Let the salad marinate as long as you can b/c the flavors really intensify. Thank you Baby Kato.

    Delicious and very refreshing. I didn't used a bottled dressing but made up a standard vinaigrette using red wine vinegar, evoo, garlic and some oregano.

    Very good and easy, but I also liked that the salad didn't get all liquidy from the tomatoes (like a lot of these types of salads). I skipped the olives (out of) and used basil - lime dressing for the salad dressing. Thanks for sharing this delish salad!

    Wow - this was so yummy! I did not use any dressing, and the salad was full of flavor. I plan on making again later this week since cukes and tomatoes are taking over!!

    This was a nice change from a standard mixed salad. I served this with Greek Grilled Chicken Breast and Baked Buttery Potato Slices. I used blue-cheese stuffed olives and greek viniagrette dressing. I let this sit on the counter for an hour and did not refrigerate for the time alloted in the recipe and it turned out great!

    Wow, Ed makes a tasty salad! We have had this twice now, once with the zesty Italian and once with balsamic viniagrette. Both were great.

    You and you're son are the bomb. This is so wonderful, I made this twice today. Once for lunch, (( was selfish) and once for dinner with DH. This would be great going along for a ride to lunch in a nice container too. I am very particular to sliced sweet onions, especially when they are thinly sliced, as I feel that way about cucumbers too. I had Good Seasons Salad dressing that I shake in the cruet, so this worked perfectly from all around. As a couple of reviewers suggested, used some feta on top. Thanks Baby Kato! Made for Zaar Stars

    Yummy salad! I loved the olives in this dish! I used up my Zesty Italian salad dressing, now off to see if Zaar has a recipe for it! Thanks Baby Kato!
