My sister and I created this fresh salad at one of our "recipe nights" and it's been a hit at every party since! Try red pepper flakes for a little kick if you'd like, or add Greek pepperoncini. -Jennifer Freier, Algonquin, Illinois

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pesto. I always have some pesto in my fridge, so this is a go-to recipe for me.
