Veggies lovers step right up, this is a dish you’re going to love! For everyone else, it’s a perfect side dish to grilled chicken or shrimp. The flavors mesh together so well and it’s even better the next day. Love those recipes that only get better with time. The recipe makes a large serving and would be perfect for a bbq or easy summer dinner. I followed Val’s lead and paired it with pita on the side- so good!
side note- I accidentally picked up a green bell pepper instead of the red and it was still amazing!
