Simple, yet a great combination. I used a sweet Vidalia onion. I added a little extra sugar and dijon mustard to the dressing, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Thanx for sharing this!

This is a simple, great salad! I enjoy this with the mustard dressing that it is coupled with on the site, but it is also good with a balsamic vinegar and oil dressing, and a red wine vinegar and oil dressing.

Don't dock kitchengrrl on the stars.. Wanted a memo to self that the dressing didn't do it for me.. Maybe my "bad" but I'll use another recipe in the future.

In my family, I am most famous (infamous) for several dishes: My first original recipe: Conceived around age 7, for a cheese sandwich. Toasted English muffin, spread with butter, slice of American cheese, a good layer of Parmesan, top with other half of buttered muffin. My most disasterous recipe: The Exploding Brownies. Otherwise great hershey's recipe for brownies involving an ingredient (baking powder) that I'd never used before. I somehow misread 1/4 teaspoon as a 1/4 cup. Brownie coated the ENTIRE oven. My most requested recipe: Stollen at Christmas. I am required to make one for my mother ever since my sister gave me Christian Teubner's wonderful Christmas Baking book full of traditional German Christmas treats.
