This was excellent! I used wild rice, regular onion, canned mushrooms and didn't have any oranges. I love the dressing and all the crunchiness of the veggies. Next time I'll add some pecans. Will make this again! Made for 1-2-3 Zaar Hits Tag Game 2010.

My husband really liked this. I thought it was missing something, I wasn't crazy about the dressing. I will make again.

Yummy! This salad is so tasty. I used 1/2 cup green onions. About 1 cup of mandarin cause the small can was only that. I'll do it often. Thanks Loof :) Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
