"A co-worker gave this to me years ago from the (late) Adriatica. We've cut back on the feta and it's still good, but I wanted to post the recipe as we knew it."

TigerJo, I love this recipe. It doesn't take much time to put together and it tastes wonderful. I only used half of the feta that the recipe calls for and it still had a good feta flavor to it. I will use the full amount next time, because I love feta.

Wow, this was good. We ate it for our Christmas eve dinner, a time when we look for simple but great food. This fitted the bill perfectly. We all loved the salty, lemony. tomatoy, herby mix of flavours and the great contrast of textures in there too. No need to alter a thing, no need for any further seasonings, this was a great (and quicker than stated) family meal.
