Great salad! I made as stated and next time will try with canned mandarins to cut down on time and add sweetness. I might try honey-roasted peanuts too. Thanks for posting!

I loved this salad and know I will be making it again. The colors are pretty on the plate too. I did add some finely shredded purple cabbage, but otherwise followed the directions. I served this with Recipe #275982 for a light & quick cooking lunch. Made for ZWT4.
