Snow Salad With Strawberry Sauce image

My mom's cousin had a catering business many years ago, and this was one of her most requested dishes. It is called Snow Salad because of its pure white and fluffy appearance, but it is not a traditional salad. I have served it at many parties and get-togethers and am always asked for the recipe. Give it a try--I think you'll love it as much as we do!
