ChupaNote: this is an out of the pantry recipe for unplanned visitors. I
stretch it into a salad by adding a bunch of parsley, chopped, a bunch of
cilantro, chopped, a couple of green onions, chopped, and a couple of
roma tomatoes chopped. Replace the balsamic vinegar with lime juice. Toss
with boiled potatoes for potato salad or with cooked room-temperature
pasta for a pasta salad. Finish with a generous sprinkling of Aleppo red
pepper.
