It was so easy to make and so so so good. My girlfriend loves salads and she said it was the best one she has had for a long time. I definitely will be making it again.

To make this a truly Mediterranean-style salad, try adding some sliced black olives. And for more nutrition (especially for vegitarians), add a can of chickpeas/garbanzo beans, drained & rinsed.

Absolutely a staple in our home all year round! I do not use zuchinni, though, but rather cucumbers, and it is gone by the end of a meal!

My kids (8 and 10) can't get enough of this yummy salad! To reduce the calorie content even more, try the reduced calorie Kraft Zesty Italian dressing! What a great find (and a great way to get them to eat their veggies!).
