The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Guess he was upset with Caesar getting all the salad press. Alexander certainly goes his own way, though, with roasted red pepper and feta delivering an awesome flavor combo.

LOVED IT! Made it exactly as directed.

Used a combination of romaine and iceberg lettuce for a little added texture. We thought it was a really good salad and will make it again.

Simple but good. I added quartered roma tomatoes instead of the roasted peppers though.
