Green Pepper and Tomato Salad

This is a quick and delicious summer salad, chop a large green pepper and two medium size tomatoes into bite size pieces. Place the pieces into a bowl, toss to combine, and sprinkle with Italian salad dressing. Allow to sit for a bit so the tomato juices will mix with the salad dressing, and it's ready to eat. Can also be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.

RE: Green Pepper and Tomato Salad

Hi, this is Kat from PA. What you wrote is excellent! I go a tad over on the olive oil, but you rock! Also, not sure if your into cabbage. I never really was, but if you get a head, cut it any way you want. Add salt, pepper, olive oil and a smidge of vinegar. It's great! Thank you for posting this! (03/11/2009)
