I used shrimp and red wine vinegar. Unfortunately, I didn't marinate long enough. Still good and easy.
0 HelpfulThe mixture was tasty, but like others said I will probably skip the tortilla and put it over a salad. Will make again.
0 HelpfulThis was delicious and so stinking easy! Loved that the roasted veggies were cherry tomatoes and corn - i.e. no prep. I used white wine vinegar in place of sherry vinegar, and we added some extra veggies we had in the fridge to the salad just to fill it out.
0 HelpfulYUM!! Didn't realize that sherry cooking wine isn't the same as sherry vinegar. My bad! Had to add honey to aid the sharpness. This was fantastic.
