You can try serving this as an appetizer with goat cheese and crackers or top your burger or hot dog with it! The sugar added to the recipe cuts out any bitterness you may sometimes taste from the peppers.

We used to drive all the way to Pennsylvania to pick up quarts of this salad – now we make something similar right at home! This salad has a little tart to it from the vinegar but is really a great side to any BBQ or sandwich.
