Better Late Than Never

I dare to even whisper this for fear it's true... but summer is on it's final legs (and there's not a darn thing I can do about it - I've tried, trust me).

With that in mind, and even though every ounce of me is screaming (and subsequently fighting off, at the same time) "football season" and thinking of game-watching foods such as dips or anything out of a crockpot, I'm resolutely staying on the path to delightfully bright-colored salads. Somehow I didn't get around to some of these earlier this summer so I'm doing my very best to make up for lost time.

For that procrastination, this Mediterranean Pepper Salad literally smacked me when I finally made it and said "as punishment, you will make me every week for the rest of your life" (and call me a rule-follower... I just had to oblige!). The only issue being the other 47+ summer salads I recently bookmarked; a challenge I'm happy to tackle - and the solution absolutely not including making this salad any less often.

*By the way, fear not ye who dislike anything olive - you must still make this and make it with olives. Now is not the time to turn a deaf ear - pick out the olives if you must after the salad has been mixed together but put those olives in, darn it!
