This was a recipe that my roommate had always made. It’s a great recipe, and very easy to it the way you like it. My mom makes it now a lot during the summer and has formed it to her and my dad's likes. She adds grape tomatoes. My Roommate adds red, yellow and green peppers to hers. This recipe is what is on my recipe card, not necessarily the way I make it every time. And you can add as much or as less of each ingredient.
