Thank you so much for the free recipe because it is truly a wonderful way of eating vegetables! In our home we all love veg (perhaps because mostly they are fresh from the garden) so I am always on the lookout for new and interesting ways of using them in our diet. We marinated ours overnight and served them as a side dish at a barbecue we had over the weekend. They were a huge hit and I happily recommend to anyone to try.

My Mother used to make a salad very similar to this when I was young, and I believe it is the reason I love vegetables so much. She would make it the day before and serve it as a main course for dinner on those warm Summer nights. This recipe is as close to hers as I have ever found. It is bountiful, and refreshing. Whether you serve it as a side dish or main course, your family is sure to enjoy this hardy salad.

This recipe is so much more fun than your standard crudit or veggies and dip platter at a party. The line will move much quicker, since everyone can just grab a bowl and go mingle! The simple natural marinade for the veggies doubles as a healthy homemade salad dressing as well. I might not do the mushrooms overnight, since they might discolor, but just wait until an hour before serving to toss them in.
