This might be a relish for others, but for us it was great as a dip with the large corn scoops! The only change I made when preparing it was to cut the olive oil back to a little less than 2 tablespoons! Loved the taste & will definitely be making it again! Thanks for sharing it!

Great little number to have in your repetoire. I must admit, I overlooked the lemon all together, but it wasn't missed. This was just the touch of colour and flavour that a rather plain dish of asian noodles needed. Sounds like a strange combo, but it really worked...I think it would work with most things.

This was so easy to put together and so yummy. I served this with Greek pita chips and we all loved it. This has been added to the regular rotation. Thanks for sharing :)

A completely extemporaneous and impromptu dish. That's sophisticated talk for easy to throw together. Great stuff!

Diced Greek Salad! Served this with pita crisps as a snack - we all thought it was a great way to incoporate more fresh veg into a diet. Thanks.
