Jan, glad you liked it!
My husband didn't have a second serving of prime rib tonight, but he did have a second serving of this salad. Beautiful presentation and amazing flavour from a few ingredients. Will be making this again.
Thanks for the recipe.
Linda, your comment is beautifully written and it made my day! Glad this salad won over the prime rib! 🙂
