Let's Dish

This salad is simple, delicious and healthy. It's great for a picnic, summer barbecue or quick lunch. Feel free to make substitutions based on what you have handy. Any bell pepper works well and so do regular olives and halved cherry tomatoes. If you grow a garden, you'll probably have many of the ingredients right in your own backyard.
