I made this salad to bring to work for lunch today, and it was a great quick recipe. I happened to have all ingredients on hand which was also nice. I subbed onion & garlic powder for the "real thing" in the interest of saving time. I also ended up basically doubling all spices, and used approx. 3 TB lemon juice. Tasty, easy, and quick!

This is true to its name...it is a tad spicy. Even DH said it was spicy, just the way he likes it. This is quite easy to throw together. I did encounter a few problems....1) instructions do not indicate when to add red chili pepper so I added it with the other pepper, 2) instructions don't say how much lemon juice to use so I used half of a lemon, 3) instructions don't indicate whether to chill or serve immediately, etc. This recipe was prepared for Pick-A-Chef Fall 2006.
