I Enjoyed It!

by Rachel 2 months ago
I made it exactly as the recipe stated and it turned out wonderfully! Tasted great, looked great! It was the first Mediterranean style dish I ever made, and it was easy and simple to throw together! The shopping list is a bit long and pricey though. I'll also warn that the two people I was cooking for were not "adventuresome" eaters, so they did not like it as much as I did. I think if I had left out the olives one of them would have been happier. Like I said though, yum! Try it for yourself, good luck! :)

Really good flavors

by FruitFly 8 months ago
I'm not crazy about olives, so I left them out. I used 2 bell peppers instead of one. They were in season and local when I cooked this. I didn't have Feta cheese and used parmesan cheese. I like Feta cheese so I will make it again and use Feta.
