Had a cucumber, green pepper, onion and what else to make with these ingredients is a salad. I had forgot that I use to make this often when I first got married. Made it and shared it with my neighbor which loved the taste. Cooking for two isn't easy some times. This is a keeper during these hot summer days when you don't really want to heat up the kitchen. Enjoy!
