This salad spoke to me. Surely if you listen closely, you can hear the layers jamming. I know, my powers of observation are enviable. Made for ZWT#8~France. -
I took this to a picnic today and it got demolished! It took 5 minutes to throw together and was so wonderful, with or without dressing! Thanks for posting! -
Fantastic!!! I use Ocean Spray dried cranberries (Craisins) with 50% less sugar. I use Paul Newman's Raspberry Vinaigrette. My favorite salad with the addition of sliced pears or sliced apples!! I sometimes use baby spinach leaves instead of the spring mix too.

Had this last night and it not only tasted wonderful, but looked so pretty. I'm really not a fan of any type of dried fruit from raisins to cranberries but decided to try this out for the I recommend Tag Game 2012 and glad I did as I discovered that I really liked this. Used a balsamic vinger dressing as didn't have any raspberry and it was so tangy and sweet with a nice crunch from the walnuts. Really enjoyed it and the appearance made it even better.

This was very nice and refreshing I added a few raspberries to mine as an extra. Made for World Tour 8 thanks for posting, we will be having this a few more times this summer.

Absolutely delicious! I accidentally picked up plain red wine vinegar dressing, but I think it was fine. I added some sliced green onion, and subbed chopped pistachios for the walnuts. This is a magnificant salad. I will be making it often.

Someone special recently gifted me with membership ~ I don't know who, but know they are special :D! Thank you! It is much appreciated....
My parents owned a grocery store when I was growing up, so there's my love of FOOD! My friends all love to drink, so there's my profession! I stopped bartending 5 years ago, when my son was born, but still 'do' private parties. DH and I did a 'Supper Club' for a while, but life kept getting in the way!
I am a SAHM, to a rambunctious 5 y.o....I LOVE cooking and collect cookbooks and anything kitchen related! I'm kinda picky, but will just drop an ingredient or make a sub, so I can still try a recipe.
I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment here, and hope to participate in some events soon!
Thanks to everyone for posting such great recipes, and if you review mine, just know that I appreciate the time and effort involved in the reviewing process!
