I stated in an earlier post that I've had this thing for salads lately. Believe me when I say that I wasn't kidding. I'm really excited to share this one with you, because it is probably my most favorite of all the ones I've made recently. This recipe comes from the January 2010 issue of Cooking Light magazine. I love CL because it presents healthy recipes in a way that is aesthetically pleasing. I can honestly say that I've never disliked a dish that I have re-created from one of their recipes. So, even though this might sound like a plug for the publication, I promise you it is not. Trust me, there isn't any payola going on here ;) I've made this a few times already ~ once for company (it was a hit), and another time to take for lunch during the week. The original recipe calls for Kalamata olives, which are not a favorite at my house. I added red onions instead. Other than that, I really didn't think any other changes were necessary.

Sounds great! I would eliminate the salt, especially with the feta cheese in the recipe. Although I love olives, love the idea of replacing them with red onion. Good choice!
