Made it as instructed and I really loved it. I had to make my own tomato juice since I didn't find any in the grocery store.
Really enjoyed this recipe. I separated the cooked new potatoes from the rest of the salad as I had some particularly good tomatoes and wanted to let those flavours come through. Really fresh, tasty and an incredibly healthy (and quick! so easy!) midweek meal.
