Marinated summer salad

I threw this together the other night as an alternative for a regular tossed salad--and we all liked it!   Very colorful and appealing, as well as delicious.  Thought I'd pass it along.

Use the amounts of each vegetable you want, and vary the seasoning according to taste.

Toss together in a bowl:

• sliced, diced raw zucchini (could also add yellow summer squash)
• diced mixed peppers:  green, red, orange, yellow
• thinly sliced red onion
• sliced hearts of palm
• minced fresh garlic

Mix and pour this marinade over veggies:

• 1/3 c. apple cider vinegar (I like Braggs)
• 1/3 c. olive oil
• 1/2 tsp. to 1 tsp. mixed Italian herbs
• sea salt, a shake of pepper

Blend and chill well before serving.
