NOTES : 6 servings/Serving size: 1/6 recipe To many, this is known as
kalokerini salata, a Greek summer salad. For others, it is a colorful salad
that may have first been tasted in a local Greek restaurant. It is
wonderful and easy to make, especially when garden vegetables are at their
prime. For best results, always use feta cheese and Kalamata olives.
