Getting your family to eat fruits and veggies will be a snap, thanks to this tantalizing salad from Vicky LaMance of Middletown, Ohio. A simple reduced-fat dressing coats her crunchy mix of peppers, celery, cabbage, apples and grapes. Not overpowering, it complements their flavors instead of hiding them.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium green pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 3/4 cup chopped red apple
  • 1/2 cup seedless red grapes, halved
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Lettuce leaves

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and salt. Stir into pepper mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve on lettuce leaves.
