1 small onion
1 green pepper
1 red pepper
1 large ripe tomatoes, seeded
1/2 lb cooked calamari, cut in rings (boiled in salted water just until tender, about 2 minutes...as soon as they turn white) or 1 (1 lb) calamari, cleaned and sliced into rings, tentacles left whole, then cooked
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 -3 tablespoons chopped parsley
salt and pepper

Steps:

Finely dice onion, tomato and peppers.
Make the vinaigrette: Whisk olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper until combined.
Toss all ingredients in a bowl and chill for an hour before serving.
For a prettier salad, arrange lettuce leaves on a serving platter, top with salad and garnish with parsley sprigs and lemon wedges.
Note: You may substitute any seafood for the calamari--octopus sliced on the diagonal are really good, shrimp, scallops, mussels, or even a mixture of seafood.
