This winter weather is getting on my nerves. I am tired of the wind, the snow, the cold, the lack of flowers. I am tired of it all. I want to get away to a sunny land with sand and bright colors. Alas, there are no travels in my future. Until then, I will comfort myself with this delicious and happy salad. The crunch of the veggies really makes you feel like you are eating something of substance. And the flavors!!! Oh My! They just pair so perfectly. I think this is my new favorite salad…. You absolutely MUST try this! You can thank me later.
