Just loved this salad!! I loved all the crunchy textures with all the veggies, and then, being a lemon lover, just loved the vinaigrette!! I cleaned and chopped up all my veggies and made the dressing in the morning. Then I put all the veggies out, along with the dressing, cheese & olives (in separate bowls) and then everyone could pick and choose what was on/in their salads. We enjoyed this as a side to our spaghetti & meatballs and garlic bread. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT 9.
