I added red bell peppers because I don't care for green. It made a nice color contrast. Also, tossed in a hint of chopped pickled jalapenos. Wonderful stuff, Marcie H. -
My mother made salad like this. She added diced red and yellow bell peppers along with the green to add more color. She used black olives, but I've also used spanish olives on occasion. I was going to add my recipe, but your's is so similar that I just thought I'd comment on it. I love making this on summer days to go with hamburgers and hotdogs.

I love to try new recipes. My husband doesn't like veggies so I am always looking for ways to sneak them in. He is a fisherman and we live at the coast, so we eat a lot of seafood.
