ethiopian tomato salad
I took an African cooking class this week, and this is the salad we made to go with our dinner. It is easy, a little different, and tasty. See my other recipe, "Ethiopian Tomato Salad Wrap," for another use of this salad.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
All the bright colors make this Ethiopian tomato salad inviting. It's a wonderful mix of beautiful colors and fresh flavors. Juicy tomatoes, onions, and spicy jalapenos are tossed with a tangy, sweet dressing. The balance of heat, tanginess, and sweetness is delightful. This would be a light dish for your next picnic or cookout.
