Delish! I cut this recipe way down to serve just the three of us with leftovers for lunches but used all the ingredients (just in varying amounts), except for using a naval orange instead of the mandarin. I also cut down the olive oil substancially (using only about 1/4 or so making half the recipe) and skipped the blue cheese (however I may add the blue cheese for a work lunch). Thanks for sharing this keeper which is open to so many possibilities!

Married mother of twins. I very seldom ever use recipes as they are written, always modifying and adjusting them. Many times I will take three or four different recipes and come up with a new recipe based on those.
