This salad was PERFECT!! It is perfect for a summer BBQ. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe we will make it again and again!!
PS I have been substituting the white wine vinigar for red wine vinigar and it is still WONDERFUL! Have also used Grey Pupon "mild and creamy" dijon with great success!! :)

This was a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner.I followed your recipe except that I added some roasted pine nuts and some parmesan cheese. It looked fantastic and taste even better.Thanks for posting this one. It's a keeper when you want to impress and not much work to prepare. Sage/Rita

I love heart of palms and found this to be very tasty. However, next time instead of tomatoes I will add mango or papaya, which I think will add a bit sweetness that was lacking.
