Notes
- My mom knows a lot of fun food tricks. She taught me to cut a thin slice off the very bottom of the red pepper and use it as a garnish that looks like a flower. This is such a fun way to dress up a vegetable tray, or any dish that calls for bell peppers.
- When serving at a potluck the serving bowl can be easily placed on top of another bowl containing a layer of ice. This will help keep your dish cold and safe a little longer than usual if serving in a warm environment at a party.
- Dish can be made up to two days ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator if serving at a large party.
