Do you think you could add bacon and feta cheese to this!
I think Feta cheese would be a very delicious addition!
With what ingredient can I replace the Manderin, here in South Africa it is not in season.
You can use oranges.
The dressing was particularly delicious. I caught all the pomegranate juice and added that to it and it was fantastic!
