My homemaker club is proud to say we've never served a dish more than once at our monthly meetings. That's quite an accomplishment-considering we've been together 43 years! They're still talking about this one-of-a-kind salad. -Delores Baumhofer, Montevideo, Minnesota

These salads are a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a few odds and ends in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

I think these salads would be even better if they were served with a dressing. I used a simple vinaigrette, but you could use any type of dressing you like.
