Shepherd's Salad

This salad is fabulous!! The original recipe came from an old Weight Watcher's cookbook. The recipe served twelve. I modified the recipe to serve four and used herbs my family enjoys. I use one part parsley and half parts mint and oregano. I chop everything in a small dice. It would make a great salsa with pita chips. It is best served fresh, but will keep in the refrigerator overnight not longer. If stored in the refrigerator it will release a lot of liquid but is still delicious. I great side with grilled proteins like chicken and fish.
