Recipe View Step 4: Serve (5 minutes). Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir. This salad is best served chilled.

For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vinaigrette for a subtle kick.
Feel free to substitute the vegetables with your favorites. Diced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, or even cooked quinoa would be delicious additions.
If you're short on time, you can marinate the salad for a minimum of 4 hours, but the flavor will be more pronounced after 24 hours.

    This recipe is a lifesaver! I always get asked to bring a dish to potlucks, and this is always a hit.

  • Dannie Howe

    I modified the recipe by adding some chopped jalapenos for a bit of heat, and it was amazing!

  • Omer Thiel

    The 24-hour marinating time is crucial. Don't skip it!

  • Ardella Bogisich

    I used Splenda instead of sugar, and it tasted good as well, but I think it may have taken more than a cup.
