Greek Tomato & Olive Relish
Juicy summer tomatoes and cucumbers start to really shine once Rach adds the zesty Mediterranean flavors of lemon, olives and fresh herbs.
Pair Rach's Greek Relish with the ultimate summer menu of Greek Kebabs—or "Ke-BOBs," as Rach likes to call them, in honor of virtually cooking this feast with her friend Bob Harper:
