I usually make tabouli which calls for fresh parsley. I will try this but substitute parsley for the mint and use chopped scallions since I don't usually have red onions on hand. And a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Great summer recipe to use with the fresh garden tomatoes and cucumbers! - 7/26/09
