This is very fast and tasty. Serve
it with a simple yogurt dressing or on its own.
I used home dried cherry tomatoes and those gave it a bit of a tang, but I
think cranberries would too. Sometimes the simplest is best. Think Occam’s Razor.
Occam's Razor is a principle
from philosophy. It means the simplest explanation is usually the correct one.
According to Einstein, if you cannot explain something simply, you haven’t
grasped its meaning. All right then.
