Comments: 8/13/2012 - made for the first time
12/11/2012 - made, but did not have radishes or black olives
3/4/2013 - Used chopped lettuce in place of the spinach leaves
12/16/2017 - Substituted a whole tomato, red bell pepper, and chopped lettuce. Did not have black olive slices. Should have used a different color bell pepper for better color variety.
5/16/2022 - Followed the recipe with the given ingredients, except I forgot to top it with black olives at the end.
5/19/2022 - I forgot to buy the cucumber! The ingredients were 1 large tomato, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1 green pepper, 8 radishes, and a can of sliced black olives. I served it on a bed of baby spinach. We got two meals from it.
12/10/2022 - I followed the recipe closely, except I used Romaine lettuce instead of fresh spinach. The pepper was red and the olive slices came from a can.
