TROPICAL TURKEY & SPINACH SALAD



Tropical Turkey & Spinach Salad image

I originally had this salad while I attended a Pampered Chef party. This was a very pretty salad, and it had lots of flavor; especially the home-made salad dressing. My family loves this salad!! Prep time in making this salad is questionable.
