It erased my comment & added address. I think your site hates me. Lol could you fix that. I pinned & shared your recipe. Thanks for joining us at the Inspiration Spotlight party.

I know it tastes yummy, just perfect except for the olives…but knowing its Mediterranean I know it needs olives for everyone else, not me 🙂 Thanks for sharing at #WednesdayAIMLinkParty. I shared it on social media.

Hi Marilyn,
Visiting via Amaze Me Monday, your Mediterranean salad looks refreshingly appetizing. I make this almost every day, here on the island of Crete, in Greece. We like to add watercress to ours, too.
Have a wonderful week,
Poppy
