Easy to prepare, and very light and refreshing - perfect for a hot day. Thanks for sharing! ZWT7

Excellent in everyway. We enjoyed this immensely as we sat on the porch overlooking the sleeping farm with a thunder storm in the distance. I asked DH if he could picture being on one of the Pacific Islands, and he commented he could. Thanks for bringing some quietness to our day, delight to our palette, and health to our step. Followed exactly, using my own French dressing (oil, herbs, vinegar) in place of bottled. I used a combo of iceberg to our own fresh salad lettuces from the garden. YUM! Made for ZWT7

I made this as directed but since I'm not a big iceberg lettuce fan, next time I'd use baby spinach and a mixture of baby greens. Otherwise, very tasty and pretty. Made for ZWT #7.
