I added a some shredded carrot to the mix. DH enjoyed this a side to his spaghetti dinner. Made for Zaar Stars

This was really tasty and easy to make. I didn't have a lebanese cucumber, so used a regular one. I used a serrano pepper for the green capsicum and a red bell pepper for the red capsicum. Made for Spring 2009 PAC.
