"This is a salad I make all summer, but the best time is when there is still a bunch of snow on the ground. It's still winter here, but these are USA fresh vegetables, which means spring is finally coming!"

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Trim asparagus and chop into 1-inch pieces; steam until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes in the microwave (I only use a microwave steamer). Let cool while you prep the other vegetables.

Step 2

Seed peppers and cut them into about 1-inch square pieces.

Step 3

Mix the Italian seasoning thoroughly into the salad dressing and set aside.

Step 4

In a large bowl, toss the vegetables together until they are well combined; stir the dressing mixture again and pour it over the vegetables, tossing well to coat.

Step 5

Cover and refrigerate at least two hours; stir well again before serving.

I love the simplicity of this recipe. I used the Kraft Zesty Italian dressing and it tasted great but I misread the 1st step and didn't steam the asparagus. I will make this again and will make sure to steam the asparagus. Thx for sharing your recipe here.
