Chopped Olive and Onion salad #recipe from author @DarylWoodGerber

From Daryl aka Avery

I'm totally into easy recipes. Why?

5 reasons why easy recipes are cool:

• You can go to the store and remember the ingredients.
• You might have all the ingredients in your refrigerator or cupboards already.
• You can share the recipe with a friend who is a newbie cook.
• You can make the recipe in minutes.
• You can often swap out ingredients and still come up with something tasty.

This particular recipe is great for a barbecue. Throw those ribs or hot dogs or burgers on the grill and know that your salad dish is already done.

And as I noted in the 5 reasons above, if you don't like something in the salad - say olives - toss in something else, like garbanzo beans. Don't like Parmesan? Use Cheddar or feta. Don't like capers, leave them out or throw in peppers.

No matter what, have fun!

By the way, I have some exciting news in my next newsletter (which comes out tomorrow -- always on the first of the month -- sometimes more often!)  I hope you're signed up so you can be one of the first to know.

CHOPPED OLIVE AND ONION SALAD

¼ lemon (juice)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoons capers

½ large tomato chopped

½ cucumber, chopped

2 green onions, chopped

10 black olives, chopped

2 tablespoons Parmesan, shaved – more if desired

Toss all the ingredients in a small bowl. Serve cold.  After serving, top with more Parmesan if desired.

Savor the mystery!
