1 t Dijon mustard
1 red bell pepper chopped

Directions:
Cook ozo according to pkg directions to aldente, run under cold water and drain thoroughly. Toss with 2 T olive oil. Prepare the dressing by combining the remaining olive oil with lemon juice, vinegar, herbs and spices, whisking until smooth.
