This colorful salad is one I will make again. I did add some thinly sliced purple cabbage and doubled the green onions. The orange, purple, and dark green were so striking in a clear glass bowl. My DH even commented that this was a pretty salad. The ingredients were terrific together. I made the dressing, but added it individually to the servings rather than the bowl. Thank you for sharing this recipe. Reviewed for PAC Fall '07.

I am a scientist working for a wonderful science centre in Northern Ontario Canada. I am big outdoor fan and love to cook recipes in my cast iron skillet over an open fire! I am interested in finding recipes that are suitable to bring on camping trips that are light easy to carry in a pack, that need not be refrigerated, and are hearty and nutritious.
