Mix together. Add italian dressing until all ingredients are lightly coated, you may not wish to use the entire bottle of dressing. Chill well. Serves 16 as side salad. You can use 1/2 cheddar cheese, 1/2 of any other kind of hard cheese for variety. The ham can be purchased already diced in most grocery stores. Buy the turkey in one slice at deli, then dice. You can vary the veggies, add green onions, zucchini, radishes, yellow or orange bell peppers, etc. Instead of italian dressing, you can use a fat free creamy ranch dressing, for a different taste.
