Quick, easy, healthy and dee-lish ! I needed to make an appetizer on short notice and had all these ingredients except for the tomatoes. I used canned, diced tomatoes well drained and they worked out just fine. Everyone loved this. Thanks.

Can't wait to try this! This looks like it would make a good dip too, maybe add some additional tomatoes and the juice.
