Introduction

One of our favorite salads, but too high in carbs for our preference to eat as a main dish. Sustitute any salsa or pasta shape you prefer. Even macaroni works well with this salad.
If you are cooking on the grill roast 3 red bell peppers and 3 medium ears of corn for this recipe. If eating as main dish this serves 9
