Oh my is this ever good!! I halved since I was only making for myself but should have made it all! I left out the celery and used red onion, red pepper, and orange and red tomatoes. I absolutely love love love the dressing - it's very tart, which I adore, a little bit sweet, and a little bit spicy (from the mustard maybe?) I really liked the technique of letting the veggies sit overnight and pouring off the accumulated liquid before mixing with the dressing, keeping the salad from getting too juicy. I'm going to a cook-out on Saturday and will be making more of this to take along. Thanks for sharing! [Made for Spring 2013 Pick A Chef]
