What a better way to use those fresh veggies from the Farmers Market this summer. I found this in a Better Homes and Gardens magazine. I didn't think I'd like the raw zucchini but it was great.

SALAD WITH ZUCCHINI, CANNELLINI, & TOMATOES

Salad with Zucchini, Cannellini, & Tomatoes image

This is a "green" salad, but I had to leave the word off, or everything wouldn't fit on the title line. The recipe is in the Vegetarian Express cookbook. This would also be good without the lettuce and made as a bean salad, using the same other ingredients. Tweaked.
