An ode to the end of summer with this vegetarianized "chicken" salad that is light, colorful and makes good use of your garden herbs. A perfect picnic companion or addition to barbecue fair. The popular green goddess dressing calls for anchovies - I substituted capers to maintain that vinegary bite.
