This is just like a corn salsa & I imagine would be just as good cold as hot. I used red capsicum as I didn't have green & used canned corn so cut down the cooking time. I also used fresh basil which added a nice freshness to the dish. I really enjoyed this but my fusspot DH wasn't as keen unfortunately. Thanks for posting!

An easy comforting side dish with lots of visual and flavor appeal. I love the combination of onions, tomatoes and corn. Including peppers was a tasty bonus which provided an additional crunch to the side dish. I also managed to make this a lower fat dish by cooking the onions in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and adding 2 tablespoons of water after 2 minutes. Thanks Parsley.
