This was a very refreshing little salad. I would cut back the dressing by about a half in the future as it seemed a bit oily for us, or perhaps I'll just add a big handful of spinach to lighten it up. I ended up drizzling the leftover dressing and some of the mint over kefir (Lebni) soft cheese, sprinkled with red pepper flakes and served with pita bread. That was really nice as well. Thank you for sharing!

I decided to make a Greek Pastitsio as posted by Truebrit , and this recipe was posted a couple of times on her reviews, so my husband and I made this to go along with it. It has quite a traditional greek taste to it, and we loved it so much that we finished the whole thing off! We will definitely be making this a lot. Thanks!!

My hubby's in the Army so we move every few years. Right now we are in our home state of TX! and happy to be back, close to family that can babysit for us! hubby is gone for a whole yr right now, so the baby will grow up without him right now. I've lived all over the world, the only place i haven't made it to yet is Europe, hopefully someday!
