I made a simple salad for a picnic last weekend, and it was a hit:

4-5 med tomatoes, chunked
2 peeled and chunked English cukes
5-6 green onions finely sliced including most of the tops
1 med green pepper chunked
1 med yellow or orange pepper chunked
12 oz fresh mozzrella chunked
8 oz garlic and jalapeno stuffed green olives

1 small lemon, juiced over the other ingredients
dress with Zesty Italian dressing and season with fresh ground garlic,
to taste

You can let this marinate a few hours - overnight is too long, although
the leftovers are tasty (but not pretty) for a couple days afterward.
