Good but it is missing something in my opinion. IMO, the dressing is the key ingredient to make this a great salad. Make sure you mix the dressing well before adding it to the salad. Made for Count Dracula's and His Hot Bites for ZWT7.

I made half the recipe. The dressing is great with the hearts of palm and peppers. DH said he would like jalapeno in it next time. Good idea. I'll try next time. Thanks FloridaNative :) Made for Count Dracula and His Hot Bites for ZWT7

This was fantastic. The mustard blended nicely with the bland hearts of palm and zesty dressing. Made for ZWT and will certainly make again.
