Yes, juicy and sweet and tangy and the blue cheese that Pebbles suggested gave just nicely some more saltynes. Just looking at it all makes the mouth watering.

Very refreshing and sophisticated. I added a bit of crumbled blue cheese. A light lunch that satisfies lots of cravings, sweet, salty, tangy, but doesn't make you feel stuffed! Thanks
