This salad is so quick and easy to make, not to mention delicious to eat.

You can serve it up as a side dish to your dinner, lunch with left over meats or tuna, or simply as a wrap filling. It will keep in the fridge for days and it is something that you will make again and again.

There is nothing like fresh ingredients and this salad brings everything together and is the perfect last minute salad you can whip up for your dinner guests!
