This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some zucchini, bell pepper, and corn that I needed to use up, and this salad was the perfect solution. It was delicious!

I love this salad! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually add some grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a more complete meal.

This salad was so refreshing and flavorful. I used a mix of cherry tomatoes and grape tomatoes, and they added a nice burst of sweetness. The dressing was also perfect - tangy and light.
