PaulaG's Note:

This recipe has been adapted from another cooking site. It was billed as the "South Beach Salad". I don't know if the changes I have made have changed that or not. It is delicious and made a wonderful and different salad to serve for guests.

I have made this many times and it is a great salad. I do add more Djon but other than that, make as written. Last night I served it with an easy baked chicken breast. So good.

This makes a yummy salad. I loved the combination of vegetables! Flavor was great. Made for ZWT4 for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers.

Wow, this is perfectly delicious! Seasoning is my kind of thing. I made it the day before for our lunch today with corn muffins. I made the dressing and put the heart of palms, red pepper, artichoke, and olives together in bowl, dumped the dressing on, refrigerated it. Then the next day assembled onto salad greens, and added the tomato and egg garnish. Can't wait to share this Paula with my DIL who will love it! Made for ZWT4 the FLYING DUTCHESS'.
