This is my new favorite salad for lunch.  One of my sister’s good friends Megan, passed this recipe on to her and she passed it on to me. It is a real winner and super easy to put together.  You really can use any veggies you have on hand but this combo pairs together really well.   The more veggies the better.  My sister added artichoke hearts to hers as well.  This will save well in the fridge for several days.

Would also pair great with kabobs if you wanted a more substantial meal.

Enjoy!
