Delicious! A nice combination of flavors. Very satisfying side dish. Will definitely make this again!
I did love this salad very much. I only gave it 4 stars because it was, for me, too high in sodium. I throughly enjoyed eating it but wasnโt very happy when I awakened the next morning. Iโm in solid ketosis per my Keto-mojo meter yet still showed a close to two pound weight gain. I know this is just water and will likely come off tomorrow morning. I will make this again but will cut way back on the capers, olives and feta. The fresh herbs are what really makes this special so I donโt think Iโll miss the slimming down of the aforementioned ingredients. Thanks!
I just made this salad for the second time and I absolutely love it. It is so simple and the flavors are fantastic! I’ve been so happy with each of the recipes I’ve tried. Thanks so much!
Thank you, Donna. ๐ Keep trying more recipes!
Salt, Fat, Acid, & Heat!
salad does not need any Heat, but it does need, Salt, Fat and Acid. there is no mention of fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice, you have the olive oil for the fat, but no acid for the balance and capers do not give off enough acid. try it with a few sprinkles of lemon juice, fresh only not from a bottle.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this salad. I’ve had a hard time eating veggies and found my new go to recipe. Everything was so fresh, uplifting and delicious. Thanks so much for this version of the recipe. The feta makes it!๐
Hey JR! Delighted you enjoy it. So easy, right? We love it, too!
