We serve this colorful garden feast when we find vegetables that are bursting with flavor, writes Merwyn Garbini from her home in Tuscon, Arizona. The dressing makes the fresh salad a welcome addition to most any entree.
Ingredients:
1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
1 medium sweet yellow pepper, chopped
1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
1 medium cucumber, seeded and chopped
1 small zucchini, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 large ripe avocado, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper; shake well. Drizzle over vegetables and toss to coat. Toss avocado with lemon juice; sprinkle over salad. Serve with a slotted spoon. Yield: 8 servings.
