Wonderful quick side dish to put together on a very hot summer day! I used a regular whole small onion in place of the red, and added in some fresh minced garlic also. I'm thinking that the next time I make it, I will add in some ground beef to make it a complete meal. This dish was wonderful served with grilled burgers, thank you Chris from Kansas for sharing!....Kitten:)

<p>I live in the Kansas City area and have many hobbies including cooking, reading and spending time with my husband and two children who are very active in sports now. I also have an eBay business which is a fun hobby that makes a little extra money! My interest in cooking focuses on making healthy dishes that are more satisfying than the higher fat and higher sugar versions. If I had a month off with no responsibilities, I would spend it at a luxury spa. <br /> <br /></p>
