I made a pasta salad w/kidney beans and corn with the usual onions, celery, green and yellow peppers. Mixed it with Greek dressing. Whole neighborhood gobbled it up.

Everything sounds good-must be hungry.

Or you can use Thousand Island Dressing for potato salad - makes it kind of pink.

also, you can use lowfat, low-cal salad dressing if you are wanting a lighter dish.

I made a chicken salad this week and added some fresh dill...it was so good! I used mayonaisse (light) but I bet ranch dressing would also be good for this.
