"I came across a version of this recipe while flying home from a business trip. The fact that the sauce wasn't cooked was what hooked me into trying it. It is very easy to make and also makes a nice presentation. Because the sauce isn't cooked using the best ingredients is essential. It is also great made with fresh summer vine ripened tomatoes!"

Holy Pastrana Richard, you're a GENIUS! This is the best dish ever! Healthy, easy, flavorful...I've run out of phenominal adjectives! I will make this time and time again! The only thing I omitted was the olives (I hate those bloody things), and it was just as good otherwise! Thank you for sharing this recipe! XO LA :-)
