Instead of mixing all the veggies and apple together in the mayonnaise, I made the dressing separately adding two drops of Liquid Smoke to the mayo. Used fresh organic veggies from our CSA box including a Red Delicious apple. Substituted manchego cheese for the smoked cheddar, too. The scallions we received last week were extra strong and "spicy" and complemented the other flavors perfectly. Served with: Whole roasted chicken and Recipe #59307, Recipe #126532, and Recipe #305085. We enjoyed all the different flavors going on in this salad, *Parsley*!
