Scaled it down, but shouldn't have because it got apocalyptic attention. We doth love a good salad.

Made for a pot luck and had 4 people ask for the recipe. It was too sweet for my taste, but DH and the majority of people at the pot luck seemed to think it was perfect. Made using fat free cream cheese, fat free Greek yogurt, and Splenda. Will be tucking this away for another pot luck as it is quick, easy, and a Big Hit. Thanks so much for the great post.

We loved this! I did scale back on the sugar some for everyone else but added a bit to my personal bowl. I liked the added nuts (pecans) but the kids didn't. I will definitely make this again! Thanks

Fantastic and addictive side dish or dessert! Refrigerated overnight and the salad set up nicely with a almost caramel flavored glaze from the brown sugar. My DD made this salad for us the first time we tried it and now will be a family favorite. Made and reviewed for the Australian/New Zealand Forums RECIPE SWAP #70 - November 2012.

This was very easy to put together and was a lovely salad. I scaled it down to only 1/4 because it was just for me. I used fat free cream cheese and sour cream. I thought it was better without the nuts, but that's just my preference. I can easily see this being popular at a cookout or a potluck!
