Lynda this was as good as the greek salad recipe's I have eaten out. I can't thank you enough for a wonderful tasting salad. I doubled all the ingredients and did 3x the marinade. I also left the kalamata olives whole because I luv olives. We are praying for you at this difficult time. Thank you for a great recipe that will be used again and again. GodBlessYou
