This was a good (and easy) salad. I used real crushed garlic + salt in place of garlic salt. I think some of the ingredients were a bit odd together. I think next time, I'd replace the monterey jack cheese with fresh parmesan and replace the peanuts with toasted walnuts of almonds. Thanx for sharing!

This was a nice salad, but a little on the bland side for us. I thought the dressing was a little lacking in flavor but don't have a clue what I would do to change it. All in all a nice luch served with toasted French Bread. Thanks for sharing. :0
