EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

We like to use English or hot house cucumbers because they have far fewer seeds than the regular cucumbers.

Pitted kalamata olives can be found in jars in the olive section of your grocery stores, as well as in the deli section. They have a sharper, richer flavor than regular canned ripe olives.

I wasn't sure if I would like this, but it is actually very good. Especially refreshing for summer time. Definately worth doing again.

I usually only eat tuna in mayo, and I'm don't eat fish anyother time, but I thought I'd try this, and I loved it! I used black olives, and added extra of the feta cheese. Would for sure make it again!
