Date And Orange Salad W Feta And Pistachio Recipe

	Mintymommybee / All my dishes 1 year, 4 months ago Not sure where I got this recipe, but love to make it around holidays. I use blood oranges if it's February. white balsamic vinegar has a more mellow flavor. Trader Joes has raw pistachios that taste even better than roasted! Prep:15m Servings:6	Mintymommyb
