della's prune salad
One of my husband's relatives from Chicago made this salad,it's unusual but delicious. The kids tease that Aunt Della always puts prunes in her food. She makes a prune danish that's very good and she makes a chicken dish with prunes. Maybe they're right! She DOES cook with a lot of prunes! LOL!
