INSTRUCTIONS

Chop all ingredients by hand in small pieces to keep a great rustic look to the salad. Add lemon juice, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes (I prefer dried cayenne peppers milled in the spice mill).

CHEF COMMENTS

Great summer time cool down. Tastes even better the next day when everything blends. Great as a salad, topping, salsa or as a dip for tortilla chips.

Cucumber, fresh jalapeno and even cheese cubes or feta are also great add ins.
