This salad is delicious and presents beautifully. The photo I hurriedly took of my serving does not do it justice. I served to company and everyone really enjoyed it, including DH, who commented multiple times that he thought it was really good. I omitted the pecans for personal preference. Thanks for a keeper!

I made this as written except for omitting the pecans. The dressing was absolutely fabulous and light and flavorful and all of the ingredients in the salad blended nicely. Thanks for a quick winner!
