Summer Vegetable Salad image

There are several versions of "Marinated Vegetable Salad" on Zaar, this is a take and tweaked recipe of my mom's, it is a bit different and a favorite in our family. This is wonderful for potlucks or when you want to make a huge salad. The Dressing is the key to this refreshing summer salad. You can put almost any kind of canned veggies to this, even garbonzo beans .... just dump all into a colander and let them drain. Be sure to make the dressing and give it time to chill. Thanks Mom!
