This is delicous! I only used the ingredients I had on hand and added leaf lettuce, and it was the best salad I've ever made. I can't wait to share this with friends and family. So good an so healthy too!

I made this for my husband and I for lunch and we both loved it! I left out the capers and it was still good. It tastes even better the next day. A very easy and healthy lunch.

this was superb, the only thing i changed about it was to elimate the mint, otherwise i made it as posted, a new family favorite!!!

I did not add the capers because when I opened the jar I did not hear the seal brake. :-( I was so looking forward to trying capers for my first time. Right now at room temp this salad tastes great. So it will be great when chilled and also have the time for the flavors to blend. Just the right amount of garlic, as not to over power the other flavors. Fast and easy to make. Thanks!! UPDATE (same day) Okay, this does not work well after it had been chilled. Tends to be on the mushy side. So I'd suggest if you want it chilled, then make sure all your ingredients are chilled before you start. And add the feta cheese just before serving.

This is good, but I had to more than triple the amount of dressing for this salad, I also increased the feta and capers, and only used a few cherry tomatoes sliced in half, thanks Kel!...Kitten:)
