    That's an awesome combination, I always liked adding fruits to my salad, especially the sweet/sour ones since it adds a kick to the usual greens. Thanks for the recipe, I'm very curious about the dressing!

  7. This is another delish salad to try to make. I LOVE the strawberry but I will pass the pecan as my daughter has peanut allergy.
