My husband and I had this for lunch today. It was very very good. I added a couple of tomatoes and didn't use any cheese, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. The dressing is rather sweet, but I think it complemented the salad well. Thank you, Walter Bateman. (Spelling corrected. Originally posted Sept. 15, 2003.)
