This recipe is so simple and easy to make, I can make it every day! It’s a great vegetarian recipe because the Halloumi can easily be mistaken for chicken breast. These salads can be ordered from Greek restaurants, but we prefer to make them at home. This week, we’ll be doing a video recipe instead of just pictures 🙂
