Kabobs, Greek Salad, Grilled Cheese and Tsatziki

Another Greek salad, can't get enough of it.

We made this kabobs from beef marinated in olive oil, shallots, garlic and oregano.  We grilled Halloumi cheese.  We should have grilled it longer, it still squeaks when you eat it.  And of course, grilled pita

Tsatziki (from How to Roast a Lamb:  I have tried to make this sauce a couple of times in the past, but this is my favorite by far!)  Peel and finely dice one cucumber.  Put 5 minced garlic cloves, 2 thickly sliced shallots, 1/2 cup distilled white vinegar and dried dill to taste (we didn't have fresh) and put in food processor.  Process until chopped (not pureed.)  Add to cucumbers.  Fold in 1 cup greek yogurt.  Add 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice and salt (about 1 1/2 tsp) and cracked black pepper to taste.  May refrigerate for up to one week.
