CHUNKY ITALIAN TOMATO DIP

This recipe was given to me by my Italian FIL. I don't measure when I make this, I just eyeball it. So if you wish to make any adjustments to the amounts, feel free. Eat it with a crusty or toasted Italian bread. It is yummy! Entered for the Zaar World Tour 2005.

Steps:

Mix all of the ingredients together. Cover and let them meld in the refrigerator overnight. Shake the container occasionally to mix a little.
This can be eaten right away if you wish, but it does taste better if it marinates for a while before you eat it.
Enjoy!
