    Georgian Salad With Baby Sweet Peppers And Zucchini

    Today is the second day of Spring, but it doesn't feel like it. Despite that it's getting closer to Easter, East Coast is covered in snow. My kids don't seem to care much about the outside cold and are eager to go on a playground in any temperature.

    In spite of the not spring-like weather, I've been in a quite good mood lately.

    We're slowly getting accustomed to living in Connecticut and try to devote our weekends to the exploration of the surroundings.

    One of the things me and my husband are particularly enjoying is the historic aspect of New England area. Almost every single building that we see on a daily basis is screaming history.

    Victorian and Colonial houses are sprinkled throughout the state and I love noticing little details in the beautiful older houses and ponder about their history.

    As the weather gets warmer, I anticipate ever more tours across New England and I honestly can't wait.

    Travelling is my favorite thing of all times and despite having two young kids who don't love long car rides, we just can't pass on the opportunity to see and explore something new.

    My parents have already flew back to Ukraine and I still have several of my mom's recipes to share with you.

    One of them is a delicious Georgian Salad With Baby Sweet Peppers And Zucchini. My mom first made it about a month ago and I loved it so much.

    I asked her to make the salad again so that I can snap pictures and post the recipe on my blog.

    One thing that surprisingly worked well for me in this salad is the parsley and cilantro dressing.

    Let me tell you my friend, out of all herbs that I love to cook with, cilantro is my least favorite. The only recipe that I enjoy having it in is guacamole, which is something that mom makes the best too.

    After I tried this simple Georgian Salad, I started to think that I might not have explored cilantro in all its beauty. There are so many recipes that are begging for the addition of it.

    I've been a fan of Georgian meals for a very long time. Georgian cuisine is very popular in Ukraine and there are an abundance of Georgian restaurants across the country.

    Typical Georgian food is flavorful, rich, comforting and very unique. Have you had a chance yet to try my Khachapuri (Georgian Flatbread), Satsivi or Mtsvadi (Shashlik)? Those are classic Georgian recipes with so much flavor.

    And also don't forget Lobio. Absolutely fantastic!

    What I love about my Georgian Salad With Baby Sweet Peppers And Zucchini is that it can be grilled or prepared in a pan. It also tastes great cold as well as warm.

    The preparation time is fast and you can make the salad as an accompaniment for your main meal or take it with you on a picnic or potluck.

    Another great thing about this recipe is a signature parsley and cilantro dressing.

    Apart from this salad, you can use the dressing for marinating meat. Baste pork chops or chicken thighs in the marinade, throw them on a grill and you'll have a wonderful and flavorful Georgian-inspired dish worth making again.

    As Easter is right around the corner, this easy salad can make a great addition to your festive table too.
