I love this salad. Plain , simple, very tasty, Healthy and also dear to me. My 1st husband was Croatian and they love simple fresh cuisine. He made this salad for me and I was sold immediately. Whenever I cook this for guests, my children, their friends... I just never made enough and they always dish more than once. Warm and Cold this salad is a winner and also wonderful to put in with school lunches.
