I always get a lot of compliments on how sensational it tastes ..so phenomenal. I love preparing the night before for convenience sake. 🙂
I love how I did the dressing for this salad as is but have added a couple teaspoons of ranch dressing to the mixture before as well for an extra zing of flavor- even added some dill would be delicious as well!
