I made this to have a healthy snack or add veggies to round out a quick meal. It was soo good I just tripled the recipe! As a newly diagnosed diabetic, I came upon this recipe and glad I did, makes things a little easier right now. The addition of the red pepper is great for my metabolism as I am also on a mission to lose weight, which that will help! I put whatever fresh veggies I had that needed to b used. So added some mushrooms, chopped asparagus, fresh green beans also, yummy pick me up! Thank you! -
Woweee! We really enjoyed this. I made this for Easter, together with Crock Pot Turkey Breast (Recipe # 25518) and some mashed potatoes, with hot cross buns. Very tasty, and we liked the little kick from the pepper in the dressing. I added green beans and asparagus because they represent spring to me. Used red and yellow sweet peppers. Now I made these again, and we ate them without any time marinating. Delicious this time, too. Thanks, Derf! -
I am sitting here munching on a small bowl full of this as I am typing this review :) It's delicious! I added some water chestnuts and some mushrooms and a couple shakes of greek seasoning. Let set in ref. as stated and YUM! the results are delicious. Great to snack on and to have as a side dish to baked chicken or whatever meat you like. This is a keeper and one I am sure I will make alot. Thanks for sharing the recipe Derf! -
I made this last weekend exactly as written with high hopes and thought it was just okay. I really wanted to love it and was planning on bringing it to our Easter dinner, but will bring something else instead after trying this recipe. The dressing was good, maybe I just didn't like the combination of veggies.

I love this salad. You can put whatever kind of veggies you have on hand in. I added the tomatoe (I didn't have cherry, just used sliced) as I would eat each serving. This made the salad "keep" longer. Thank you for the recipe. This is a keeper!
