26 seconds- I missed you and your wonderful videos, Dimitra!
Yum!
Would my homemade blueberry vinaigrette work on the salad
Hmmm…. Im usually not a fan of sweet…but now you have me thinking of the orange cranberry almonds from Girl Scouts. … theyre v good….or pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds from Trader Joe's….
I'm lucky that I can get relatively cheap pine nuts here (that same supermarket chain that has Portuguese/Spanish/Greek foods).
Yani, the children's father was a great cook. He nor YiaYia ever did a salad like that ever. They were big on basic lettuce with either dill or mint and red wine vinegar. I have been looking and asking about a dish YiaYia use to do but have come up with zero results and I suspect it was a Greek Turkish fusion. Everything yiayia cooked was amazing. This dish I have failed to duplicate is with grated tomatoes, whisked eggs and eggplant. I have tried sooo hard but have failed as it tastes nothing like what YiaYia use to do. Do you know of such a dish? I have scoured the internet.
Looks delicious I like it
Thank you, Dimitra.
This is dinner on its own. ❤

This is such a beautiful and healthy salad! I like arugula much more than romaine or spinach! Great idea having at Thanksgiving!

Hello my friend Dimitra looks delicious and healthy and also refreshing. Thank you for your amazing recipe. Enjoy your family and God bless everyone.🙏👻💕🇬🇷🌍
Yes we Aussies do call it Rocket. I remember hearing arugula in an American YouTube video a few years ago and had to look it up. This sounds pretty tasty
Welcome back! Thank you ❤️
can you do your version of boiled green salad, horta. It's always something i look for when visiting Lesvos.
Thank you so much ,looks delish and nice and healthy , love all your videos❤
Due to anger issues, I love watching something brief and clear. Nice salad !!
