Lory on 2026-06-14 (5 stars): I didn't have all the exact ingredients, but most. Thank you for sharing this and giving me direction to make a salad with all the parsley our daughter gave us.
My only comment would be to keep the oil as minimal as possible. It can get a little heavy.
Jeff on 2024-09-18 (5 stars): Other than replacing currants with golden raisins, I made this according to the recipe. (I did use an herbed chèvre instead of the feta, too.) Still, a perfect, refreshing, delicious salad. I was also glad to be able to use the sumac I had in the back of the spice cabinet. Nicely balanced and so satisfying. Thanks.
Amy Liu Dong on 2024-06-01 (5 stars): It is delicious, easy to make, and is healthy. I mean, what can you ask for? This is a complete package waiting for you to make a move, this is amazing!
Gwynn Galvin on 2024-05-30 (5 stars): This salad was so refreshing and delicious. I especially loved the combination of fresh mint and green chili!
Daun on 2021-05-07 (5 stars): Unexpectedly delicious! The flavors are spectacular together! It is a new family favorite!!!!!!!
Leola on 2020-08-25 (5 stars): oh and I forgot to mention that we didn't have feta cheese, just shaved a bit of the hard cheese we had in the fridge. Use whatever is fresh, local, in season and already in your home is an environmentally friendly way to cook and eat healthy
Leola on 2020-08-25 (5 stars): Made it for my partner and I for lunch during our workday, we both liked it a lot. I thought 1/4 of jalapeno was plenty and skipped the dried fruit (fruit and veggies in the same meal make an uncomfortable air bubble in my stomach). It was a perfect recipe for me to use the parsley, tomato (not roma), red onion and hot pepper I got from my farm share, and the mint leaves from the pot on our deck. Thank you Analinda
Cheryll McDowell on 2018-11-14 (5 stars): Is the green Chile in this recipe a Bellpepper or is it a jalapeño chili or a poblano chili Thank you.
Camelia Tory on 2018-07-27 (5 stars): So I’m taking Mediterranean parsley to my next dinner party, would come back to give you feedback on how it turned out.
