I forgot to mention this good advice: If you use any "wet" vegetables,
like cucumbers or tomatoes (or probably even the green peppers), chop
them up to the degree you like, then *squeeze them dry* (e.g. in a dish
towel or by pressing with a spoon in a sieve). Otherwise, your spread
is likely to be runnier than you like. DAMHIK.
