This is one of the easiest summer side dish recipes I’ve made in a while.
If you are like me and you like your food on the spicier side (yes, even in the heat of summer!), then you will want a side dish recipe that is cool and refreshing to go alongside your kickin’ entrees.
This salad not only works great as a summer side dish, but you can use it all year round as a filling in spicy tacos or burritos, too.
Mmmmmm, a recipe that is as versatile as it is good.
Options are always nice, aren’t they?
