  1. This is a delightful salad with a wonderful blend of flavors. I made this for the Make Mine Vegan Challenge for ZWT9. To make it vegan I made a feta cheese substitute according to a recipe I found on happyherbivore.com. I layered the ingredients rather than mixing them but otherwise prepared the salad exactly as written.
     
  2. What a wonderful explosion of flavors! Like one other reviewer, I added a bit of vinegar - I had some white balsamic in a little spray bottle, so I squirted a few times. Used a mixture of black Greek olives and green fresh cured olives. Sliced the cuke real thin and used as a base for the other stuff - it seemed to absorb the flavors of the oregano and EVOO nicely.<br/>My friend said she wish I could give it 12 stars!<br/>made for ZWT9 - Soup a Stars
     
  3. Made for a quick lunch. As good as greek salad gets - especially if you have 'real' vine-ripened tomatoes.
     
  4. A nice simple salad that I enjoyed on this hot summer day in July. I used fresh oregano from my herb garden. Great flavors! Thanks! Made for ZWT by a Hot Stuff.
     
  5. Except for subbing fresh oregano for dried, I wouldn't change a thing. Oh, one thing: added a light sprinkle of sherry wine vinegar. Forgot about that. Really like the capers! Reviewed for ZWT 6.
