MA'S 5-CUP SALAD

Ma's 5-cup Salad image

This presents as a beautiful dish, especially in a glass serving bowl! It has been a staple at our family holiday gatherings for more than 60 years. For larger family gatherings we double the recipe. You can make it a couple of days ahead of time, if needed. It keeps well, covered in the fridge. *Ma added pecans to her 5-cup Salad recipe but we never could get the hang of calling it "6-cup Salad!" lol
