"A great make ahead, a colourful salad with the added bonus that it tastes as good as it looks. Enjoyed any time but wonderful to have on hand for weekend guests, entertaining large groups and a big hit at potlucks. This refreshing salad is another of those crowd pleasers, the kind that sees to recipe requests. Be sure to refrigerate, preferably in a covered jar to keep it crisp and fresh. Only the salad itself goes into the serving bowl, the marinade remains in the jar. Served in a clear glass salad bowl adds to the presentation."
