  1. This recipe was awesome. I loved the combination of the fresh fruit with the sweet pecans. The dressing was lively and I loved the flavor from the thyme. Instead of mint, I used basil. I will definitely make again. Made for ZWT 8.

  3. What a wonderful and refreshing salad!!! Just loved the mango and kiwi, but the star of the salad had to be those wonderful sweet pecans, yummy!!! The dressing is also very fresh and a little citrus flavor, which I also love!! Thanks so much for sharing a yummy salad for this part of ZWT8.
     
  4. What a truly delicious salad gailanng. It was light and refreshing and bursting with flavors. I loved that you could taste all the individual flavors and that nothing was overpowering. The dressing was a delight all on its own, sweet, tart, spicy and savory. Mmmm. Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe which has gone into my Favorites Cookbook for 2012...Kudos. Made for the Fearless Red Dragons - ZWT8 - Australia.
