Delicious salad! I had to use fresh basil leaves in place of the parsley, but this was an excellent way to use up the wonderful Roma tomatoes from my garden! The only thing I left out were the olives...sorry, they had gone bad in my fridge. Even the dressing tasted great on its own. I served this with the toasted pita bread on the side, but we all used it to mop up every last bit of the salad!
