This salad is absolutely delicious! I used all organic fruits and added a little more cranberries and walnuts - just my preference. The only change I made to the dressing was to add a tsp. of curry powder just to bump up the mayo and sour cream taste and I used a little lemon pepper. Sooo worth the effort -- wonderful results! Made for PRMR tag, May, 2013.
