This salad is so delicious! Serve with grilled chicken on the side and you have a perfect meal. My kids were not fans of the olives, but loved the crunchy pita croutons. I think the olives give the perfect salty meaty flavor (how in the world do you describe the taste of an olive!?) Anyway, I think all the flavors worked well together, we will be making this again!

I think describing olives as meaty and salty is perfect. Sounds delicious!
