I did not like this at all! Yuck I followed the directions to a T and it was not good. We ended up thowing the entire thing out.

This recipe was a HUGE hit. I shared it with all my guests! I don't suggest making it more that a few hours in advance. I made mine a day in advance (except the dressing) and I thought the veggies lost some crispness.

This recipe was very good. I made it for a barbeque dinner party and it went perfectly with grilled items. It is very fresh side dish and was very easy to make. Definitely a hit with friends and family!
