Kitchen Sink Salad image

This is my most FAMOUS culinary creation. It gets it's name from the fact that I didn't have a bowl large enough to toss it. I'd scour my stainless steel sink and toss it there! However, it looks best prepared in a big glass bowl as colorful layers - BEAUTIFUL & showy potluck recipe. Best if made right before serving.
