  1. Used home raised Poblanos and Beaver Dam peppers we roasted & peeled and somehow a cup of red beans ended up in the bowl too - made for a FABULOUS side for our grilled blacktip shark Baja tacos!. Keeper recipe - the beans added a heartiness that was nice but will make next time without. Delicious - thank you for posting such a winner!
     
  2. This is a cinch to make hours before serving and isn't it nice to know that a part of dinner only needs to be served! I enjoy everything that goes into this recipe so knew that it was going to be a hit for me before I started. I made it by the recipe using white wine vinegar and fire roasted red peppers. Made for Spain in ZWT 8.
     
  3. This was a surprisingly tasty and light side salad. I made this exactly as posted, and thought the dressing might be a little bland. However, it really complemented the other ingredients and added just the right amount of flavor. This is very colorful and makes a lovely presentation. I enjoyed this as a side dish with some fresh tuna. Perfect summer meal. Made for ZWT8.
     
  4. I used red wine vinegar, green onion instead of onion, raw red bell pepper. I made it for me and DH for our lunches. It's very yummy and filling. I wasn't too sure about the oil dressing, but finally after it was overnight in the fridge, it's delicious. Thanks MomLuvs6 :) Made for ZWT8 for Diners, Winers and Chives
