  A bit of a fiddle to prepare but worth it for the lovely combination of flavours.

  A great side, so tasty. I used jarred peppers for speed and didn't use the capers.

  Used prepared peppers but no capers, added a dash of soya sauce to the dressing. Absolutely delicious and healthy too!

  This is a really easy and tasty salad. I also used roasted peppers from a jar and served with roasted veg lasagne and the garlic and basil ciabbata from this site. Will definitely make the salad again soon - delicious!
