This is one of my favorite salads ever. I've had a few different versions of it in the past - with slight differences in the dressing or toppings. This particular dressing recipe is my friend, Lynsi's. Just like her, it is lovely and sweet. I could seriously eat this salad every day, every meal. It is so light and refreshing and satisfying, too. And it makes a great go to salad for parties or baby showers or whatever shin dig you want to impress at. Try it; you'll love it.
