The "Colombia" Salad

This recipe is based on the Colombia Restaurant's 1905 salad.  My MIL's sister turned us on to the recipe.  I had eaten the salad before and really liked it, but it was early in the "learning to cook" stage, so I had no idea of what went into it even though it is made table side.  It is quick, easy and totally tasty.  A very substantial salad

[Note: This is the salad mixture.  The amounts you want are based on
the # of people eating.  Remember the quality of the ingredients will
be important because of its simplicity  The dressing should be made
at least a half an hour ahead of time, to allow the flavors time to
marry. ]

to be shaking this later)
2.Add and equal amount of Worcestershire Sauce
