The day that my sister in law brought this salad to our family’s get together, it was all I ate that day. I cared less about the 15 other things that were on the menu. The salad reminded of Mushroom Bell Pepper Salad but with a bit different flavors. The flavor of marinated mushrooms and pickles give it a nice sourness, while carrots with caramelized onions and a bit of sweetness balanced the taste out.
