I have made this a couple times, including a small intimate Christmas dinner. Wonderful recipe. If you keep the wet ingredients separate, it will make great leftovers for quite a few days.05/13/08

This was a delicious and unusual salad. I served it with the Sesame Lamb Chops with Honey Raisin Sauce from CL, couscous, and roasted mixed vegetables. It is a great salad for entertaining, with a wonderful combination of flavors, but it is not a salad that will just go with anything.01/13/07
