"Nice zesty side dish with a little jalapeno added. (I just happened to have yellow and orange tomatoes on hand, it's ok to use all red or all of any colour or any combination.)"

Simple tasty recipe! Used all red tomatoes, jalapeno was just enough to give it a little zing! Yummy!

We really enjoyed this. I forgot to put the jalapenos in, but it didn't seem to hinder the taste. I decided to cut up the tomatoes instead of leaving them in slices. Thanks for a yummy recipe. Will definitely make again.
