I made this salad tonight, and the whole family loved it. I did add some chunked up white stilton cheese with dried blueberries. Thanks for the great recipe!

i was shocked at how well my family loved this!!! i thought my husband and i would be the only ones to eat this. as usual, i put a few bites of each thing on all kids plates and make them try it. some of the kids went back for 2nd's and THIRDS!!!! I will say that i forgot to buy spinach but believe my family will love it just as much with it and plan on putting in the spinach next time! also, i didn't have apricots and used more raisins instead. thank you so much for this. it was such a welcome addition to our table!!!!!!!

This is very refreshing and different. I made enought for "4" servings, yet we ate it all in one night! I did add red onions, since we LOVE onions.
