This recipe was used by the Western Canada department store, Woodward’s. I think they used Mozzarella cheese instead of Swiss. The salad was legendary amongst the store’s restaurant customers.

We just adore salads and found this one to be quite tasty. The cold plates of salad topped off by hot mushrooms makes for a delightful contrast. Made as written using Gouda option as mentioned in the description, the only thing we would do is cut back the dressing just a little and that is just a matter of personal tasty. Thanks so much for the post.
