Such a simple salad, but so pretty, and so tasty. The dressing made twice as much as I needed, but all to the good because we will glady have this salad again today. I used white balsamic vinegar, which is fairly sweet, so I reduced the sugar by half (actually, I used 3 packages of Equal), and it was perfect for us.

I am a RN and I work in the operating room, which doesn't leave much time for cooking. But when I find the time I love to find recipes on Zaar and try them out. I have been happily married to a loving husband for 4 years, and he really enjoys all the interesting meal ideas that I find!!! I have no children yet, but hopefully in the near future. I enjoy cooking all types of meals, and love cooking for others!! I enjoy looking up new and exciting recipes from Zaar.
