This recipe was personally prepared by Chris Aldfinger for the Brunch meeting with the Curious Cuisiners at the October 2015 meet. "I was given this recipe at least 45 years ago and it has been a favorite with our family since then. Using sugar-free, and lite or low fat ingredients makes this a healthy choice. This is also a great summer salad served on a bed of lettuce."
