The boredom of lettuce, tomato, cucumber and carrot set in recently and I went looking for some new salads.
I liked this one a lot, although I only made about 1/3 of the quantity …
Squash Salad
2 medium zucchini
2 medium summer squash (those disc-like yellow and green ones)
1 red bell pepper (capsicum)
1 green bell pepper (capsicum)
1/2 large red onion
Dressing
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (I used white wine vinegar)
1 package dry Italian dressing mix (I used Italian mixed herbs and a tiny bit of onion powder)
kosher salt to taste
fresh ground black pepper to taste
Salad
Slice the vegetables to a thickness of your choice
For the dressing, add all ingredients to a bowl and whisk until mixed
pour over salad, toss to coat and let sit overnight in the fridge (it was fine after about 2 hours)
