Notes

Feel free to use different colored bell peppers.
You can reduce the amount of dressing if desired or choose a different flavor, I just found that this ratio worked best for my tastes.
This recipe does not include the time to prepare the hard-boiled eggs. You can hard boil them at home or use precooked ones found near the eggs at the grocery store.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
