Fill with crunch, flavour, and nutrition.
This such a yum salad, fill of colour, flavours and textures. Use whichever vegetables are in season or a selection that you know will be popular. The vegetable prep is a bit tedious and time consuming (I quadrupled this recipe for an event and there was a lot of chopping) but the outcome was worth it.
