How lovely - fresh, delicious and colorful. I bet this is a real beauty in presentation. I love salads (and particularly these ingredients), plus I have some good balsamic vinegar to use here. Thanks, Jim sweetie...I look forward to making and tasting your salad. ~Vickie

Thanks Jim. This is another great way to use the fresh basil I grow every year. This sounds not only tasty but a feast for the eyes also.
Thanks, and a colorful 5 I'm sure.
