Loved the halloumi / peppers / onions mix! I added the cherry tomatoes into the cooked mix too. Pleasant light flavor to that veggie / cheese mix -- could be used in so many ways! The tzatziki sauce was inedibly garlicky. Maybe use garlic powder or roast the garlic next time?
With a little prep this came together quickly. I did not like the tzatziki sauce though, much too garlic.
It was an easy, yummy, and pretty healthy meal! Will differently make again!
So easy and so delicious.
Really messy but super yummy!
Fresh taste, perfect for hot summer days!
