Description
I made up this recipe as a copy cat to the tomato onion salad served at my favorite italian place. It's not exactly the same but it's as close as i could get. This is a great veggie dish to have with pizza, lasagne or any italian dish. Updated to adjust the amounts: i rarely use measuring utensils, especially when i'm making up a recipe and don't have time or the inclination to write everything down as i'm doing it. After reading your reviews i did notice some problems with the recipe…hopefully i've fixed them!
