Corn, Green Bean and Zucchini Salad image

This is a pretty salad, and came from a friend who was in charge of our local symphony rehearsal dinners. I was a volunteer, along with others, and she provided all the recipes. The symphony members devoured it! I've tweaked it just a bit. I like to serve it in a clear glass bowl so all the colors show through.
