This salad I love. It lasts in the fridge for several days and it's even better after a few days when all the flavors have really combined. It's a bright tasting salad packed with nutrition. The dressing is very tangy and will awaken your taste buds for sure! Great for a low cal lunch or as a dinner side. For my WW friends it's 3 SP if you include the dried cranberries or 2SP without cranberries. Serving size is 1/2 a cup.
