Veg Salad, thanks Paula Hink

2 can corn, drained

2 large tomatoes, diced

1 bell pepper, finely diced ( I used orange, it was good)

1/2 c finely chopped purple onion

1 c cucumber peeled and chopped

4 T mayo

1/2 c sour cream or yogurt

1/2 dry mustard

2 t salt

1/4 t pepper

2 T vinegar

Mix veggies together, mix dressing together, and fold dressing until veggies are well coated. Refrigerate overnight. Make 10-12 servings (Note from Paula which I agree with: unless you're like me and eat half of it).
