One of my top ten faves of 2009! I simply adored this. Seriously easy, absolutely the best taste, and everything was on hand. Followed this exactly, loved the used of black olives, peas, and hard boiled egg white. I used frozen peas as the reviewer did previously to me, and added 1/4 of a green pepper. The pepper was out on the counter, and I tried to resist, but the green pepper lept into the bowl. A real winner here! Made for *Everyday is a Holiday * Decembre 2009

We liked this salad. I used frozen peas, defrosted, and no black olives. I love the dressing with cumin -- gives it a little zing. Made for Everyday is a Holiday Tag Game 2009.
