My favorite way to eat this dish is warm, but it also makes a great salad served cold.
You can also serve it hot, but if you want a hot dish, be sure to heat it over low heat on the stove about 5-7 minutes so as not to zap the nutrition in this dish via the microwave. And if heating on the stove, try not to overheat the olive oil as it can burn and it just doesn’t taste great when that happens (hence the low heat)
I honestly think it’s best to serve it warm or cold.
Bon Appetit!
