On our first trip, Mark bought a tourist cookbook entitled “Invitation to the Greek Cuisine”. This recipe was the first thing he made from it, and it’s been a house favorite ever since. Great for leftovers, as well!

Greek Shrimp Salad

This probably has an authentic name in Greek, but “shrimp salad” is what the little old grandmother called it when she served it to us. So we do too!
