Wonderful salad, and followed exactly! You can't go wrong here, everything is so balanced and so tasty, I bet you will be stealing bits off your dinner partners plate when they aren't looking. This took minutes to put together, and the taste was as fresh as being outside in the middle of winter. Go ahead, stay home, make this for yourself, your partner, your family. They will love you for it. Made for *Heart Healthy Month* Diabetic Forum February 2010Reply
