Tamasin Day-Lewis’s Feta, Eggplant & Mint Salad

June 19, 2014 Leave a Comment

When it gets to be as hot as it was last night, dinner needs to be super simple.  Inspired by Tamasin Day-Lewis’s book, Tamasin’s Weekend Food, we searched out a recipe we thought would be refreshingly easy for a hot night.  We were so happy we did.  This book was a find on our last trip to the UK when we stopped in at a charity shop which happened to have a book section.  So for three pound ninety nine we walked away with this little gem of a book which has now become one of our favorites.
