In the summertime, my family loves to BBQ and make as many meals on the grill as possible. Not only does it keep the heat out of the kitchen, but it allows us to make dinner outside while we are enjoying some fun pool time!
One of my favorite things to do is to prep this salad in the morning, stick it in the refrigerator to chill throughout the day, and come dinnertime, this dish makes the best side to our burgers, chicken, seafood, and more!

What about a little fresh basil?
Kristin says
That’s a great addition, I just didn’t have any on hand, otherwise I would’ve added some!
Cindy says
Is the asparagus raw or cooked and just vinegar, salt and pepper? Sounds good and want to make this weekend. Thank you
Kristin says
Also Italian seasoning added in there 🙂
As for cooked or raw, we have had it both ways, raw is much more crunchy of course, but if you are okay with that, its quite yummy. If you prefer a more tender veggie, cook it and allow to cool before putting into the salad!! Enjoy!!
Shirley says
Looks delicious! Was there any seasoning on it?
Kristin says
I forgot to include that I used Italian Seasoning, sorry about that! I have corrected the recipe now!! Enjoy!
