Winter Salad image

Since I live in Thailand where I make this salad frequently (at least a couple times a month), I am not so sure about the title of this recipe anymore. It is retained from an unknown issue of "Cooking Pleasures" magazine, where I discovered and modified it only slightly some years ago. Perhaps a better title is the one my former neighbor, Wes, used to refer to it: "The Good Salad." Whatever you call it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
