Prepare this tray in advance and serve the salad dressing separately. That way the leftovers can be repacked and enjoyed on the following day. The list of ingredients is flexible in order to suit preference and availability. The shape of the tray does not matter. What matters that it has a rim, to prevent the vegetables from sliding off the tray.
