I threw this together, with my ingredients on hand.To take to a cookout at my friends home. Everyone loved it, so did I! Out of 17 people, 8 women asked for the recipe. The other 8 were the husbands!.....I am sure you will like it also. I love taking cold salads with NO MAYO to gatherings, and the colors look so pretty! There was no left overs.
