"This is my take on a popular salad served a lot at potlucks, salad bars, and tail gate parties. It's simple to make and healthy too! Cook time is chill time. Made for Dining On A Dollar 2010."

I enjoyed this although I did use 1/2 white vinegar and 1/2 balsamic, also added a few more spices to the dressing. I know but couldnt leave well enough alone...tasty, would make again but not quite 5 star...<br/>Good luck and thanks.

This came out pretty well. Perhaps it was missing something, but I don't know what.
