I had this salad at a luncheon and could not get enough of it. It seemed to satisfy every taste, sweet, spicy, crunchy, and tangy. It makes a lot, test the amount of dressing you like on it. Don't be afraid of the ingredient list. You can put whatever fruits and lettuces you like in it. Ingredients:
