Diced Vegetable Salad With Tahini Dressing image

Enjoy this flavorful salad with falafel, barbecued meat, fried fish or spoon it into a pita pocket. The recipe can be found in The Arabian Nights Cookbook: From Lamb Kebabs to Baba Ghanouj, Delicious Homestyle Arabian cooking. I found the recipe in the Toronto Star.
