Nice change of pace. Served warm as a side and was able to get 4 nice servings. Did leave out the cayenne as DH was standing in the kitchen and has a fit when he sees me use it (although I quite often sneak it into things). The cumin, garlic and lemon all work well to make a nice not overpowering dressing. Thanks so much for the post.

This was a great with burgers! I changed the recipe a bit by using more tomatoes and my bell pepper was yellow -- very pretty and good. Thanks for sharing!
