THAT GOOD SALAD

That Good Salad image

When a friend shared this salad recipe, it had a fancy French name. Our children can never remember it, so they say, "Mom, please make 'that good salad.'" Now our friends and neighbors request it for potluck dinners. It really is one of the best salad recipes. -Betty Lamb, Orem, Utah
