Tastes great, a wonderful tomato salad! I used a bit more garlic and went heavy on the fresh ground pepper, I love it! Thank you Ev! -
This is a gorgeous little side-dish. Truly beautiful to look at, and tastes great as well. I like that you can put this together so easily; it allows you to spend more time on your main dish, while still having a very special side-dish. I really appreciate that. Thanks for posting ! -
Excellent! These were perfect in every way. Much like a pomodoro, only as a side dish instead of over pasta. A definite favorite. -
This is fabulous. The warming intensifies the taste of the tomatoes, and the seasoning was perfect. Our Kroger did not have cherry tomatoes, so used grape tomatoes. Was lovely! I served it at a ladies luncheon this week with Quiche Lorraine and Roasted Apricot-Glazed Asparagus. The colors on the plate were beautiful together. Thanks for a great recipe! -
A very easy, very delicious salad/side dish--all the tastes and scents of summer. We loved it!

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
