The pasta-free salad that you will actually want to eat!
This salad recipe includes all the flavors of a pasta salad without the carbs that come with it! This nutrient rich salad is the perfect paleo or whole30 friendly potluck or picnic dish! It came about because I love these veggies separately, cooked or not. I have recently started getting into pickling and marinating different veggies and tomatoes and decided to through them all together with a little homemade marinade......and this was the result. It's perfect side dish but also can be made into a meal with some healthy fats and protein. Best of all - it is SO easy!
