What a scrumptious salad !! I love salad of all kinds and this did not let me down. I used half red and half yellow peppers. I also cut the recipe in half , but even by doing that it still made plenty and to me just a bit too many cucumbers. I think the next time I make this salad I will sprinkle the feta cheese on top after everything has been mixed together just to keep the white color of the feta. But we both loved it. Made it to go with Recipe #411820 and the flavors went very well together. Thanks so much for sharing Sharon. Made in memory for Sharon's DHReply

The salad we all know and love. I added far less vinegar as I find the juices released by the tomato are usually acidic enough. Good recipe.Reply
