Gently toss to coat vegetables with dressing.

Cover airtight and refrigerate up to 5 hours.

To serve, toss salad with basil. Adjust seasonings, sugar and vinegar as desired.

Use slotted spoon to transfer to serving dish.

Serve chilled.

Salad is relishlike so it benefits from being mixed several hours in advance.

Toss the salad with the basil just before serving.

Firm chery tomatoes make a diffrence as they hold up well in the salad.

The short-cut packaged baby carrots in the produce bins are the perfect size for this salad.
