Comments from the Test Kitchen:
Yummilicious! The beautiful vibrant colors will draw you in to this dish for a closer look. When I finally dug into the beautiful salad, I said to myself, "WOW, this recipe has Blue Ribbon written all over it! Acapulco would be so proud!" This salad is perfect for any season - Your family and friends will be in for a real treat. Try pairing this yummy salad with a hearty veggie soup, crusty artisan bread and a chilled glass of pinot grigio.
