    Spectacular! I'm dakos for dakos! How simple and yet so wonderful! I figure if this is what the food is like on Crete, I'm packing my bags! I followed Annacia's lead, and added a clove of minced garlic, and also added the olive oil (organic) into the tomato mixture, as I was sure I'd slip and pour on too much. I, too, used recipe #120469 to pair it with, which was divine together with it. I wasn't very successful in grating the tomatoes (used two beautifully ripe plum tomatoes), so I de-seeded them and chopped them. My feta was herb & garlic. This is wonderful, and I absolutely recommed it, and will most certainly make it again and again! Recipeswapped during Veggie Swap 24. Thank you, Sharon!
