Recipe

Turkish Salad

For a nutritious alternative to dipping with pita, I serve baby carrots and celery sticks with hummus, tahini and Turkish salad. Adding sautéed zucchini and eggplant makes it a ratatouille. Serve it warm as a deliciously thick and flavorful side dish.

Times

  • Prep Time : 10 min min
  • Ready Time : 10 min

Servings

8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon prepared crushed garlic
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 green bell peppers, seeded, veins removed, diced (or 1 (10-ounce) bag stir fry peppers, defrosted)
  • 2 jalapeño hot pepper rings (from a jar)
  • 2 cups canned, crushed tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Quartered pita breads(optional)

Directions

  1. In a 10-inch skillet, sauté onion and garlic in oil over medium heat for 2 minutes.
  2. Add peppers, tomatoes, salt and pepper.
  3. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Chill in refrigerator 1 hour before serving with warm pita bread, if desired.
