Shepherd's Salad - Coban Salatas(Turkey)

This salad might be found on a Turkish table. The salad is lovely and quite refreshing and it goes well with lamb. While it involves some chopping, it is very easy to do. Use really ripe tomatoes when you make it. You will enjoy its freshness, but try not to make more than will be eaten with your meal. This is best fresh. A simple and refreshing salad from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite.
