This was fantastic. Even my 3 1/2 year old enjoyed it (except the olives :) ). Next time I will serve it with a side-dish, such as a Greek Lemon soup or pita bread as it wasn't completely filling as a meal.

So easy to make & the longer it refrigerates, the better it tastes. I serve it with warm pita slices & it's always a hit!
