I love fruit and nuts in salads, so I know I'm gonna like this one - nice vinaigrette, too...thanks for sharing this recipe your mom created - it sounds really good (no wonder it won a ribbon!)...Krum


Sounds delicious, thanks for sharing!


What a delightful sounding salad. Some people think I'm fruity, I think I'm a nut, and I love salad, so this salad is obviously perfect for me!

Do you think your mom would mind if I added a clove of garlic to the dressing -- I just love garlic... and this recipe is begging for a clove ;-)

Many thanks to you and your mom for sharing this recipe with us.

Best wishes,

Ray
