I have discovered that I like fruit and vegetables mixed together in a salad and I have always liked pasta. This was a very unique combination of ingredients that I liked very much. The dressing was mighty tangy and zesty which was a bonus. I thought the flavors went together quite well so this one is a keeper. Thanks Denise.
