Made this for lunch yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! I used a little oil and butter as suggested in another review and also omitted the tomatoes. I put it together in the a.m., traveled to the grocery store, and bought all the vegetables pre-made. It is a great side dish!

Very tasty salad. I made slight modification in that I didn't use the full amount of oil and butter on my bread machine, as I found that the dry salad was still too greasy. If you like your salads slightly sweeter than the "olive smash" version I suggested, than this may be the recipe for you.

Made this for dinner tonight and everyone loved it! No changes, actually. I think the olive oil and fresh basil would have been better.

Very easy and tasty. I used the Osgoode vegetable bouillon from Whole Foods (heavily recommended). I also substituted white button mushrooms for the potatoes. Great flavor from the spices and olive oil and you can add basil and/or garlic if you wish. My husband didn't care for the chicken and I didn't, either. I'll make this again.--Tam

Very good salad. I think I like it a lot because I put in about a dozen different things into it. I think I will add more peaches next time. I didn't have any green part of tomatoes so just put some sliced up small green onions in the bottom of each pita. I think it will be even better.
