And excellent yet filling salad. Only distraction could be that the garlic maybe too strong, which cuts down on the romance. Overall, excellent -
Loved this salad and the dressing hit the mark. Made for Tastebud Tickling Travellers for ZWT4. -
Delicious and authentic. Just want to point out that's not an 'X' at the beginning of the word for this recipe, but the Greek letter 'hee', which has an 'h' sound. This salad is actually pronounced 'ho-ree-A-tee-kee' (read quickly). -
Ate this for a treat last night, because we have been so busy otherwise. Turned out wonderfully, and so fresh. The dressing was tasty and I used the lemon juice. rather then the vinegar. Used fresh oregano instead of dried. Thank you, Jen! made for *ZWT4* June 2008. -
This is a terrific, light and delicious salad. Easy to make and looks impressive. Thanks for a great side dish Jen! Made for ZWT 4 :)
