    Marilyn this pretty much looks like my salad. The only difference is I don’t have the patience to soak the onion. But it is a yummy salad!

      I love this one too. It is so stunning when you serve it and I like everything but the onions. I give those discreetly to my husband. Thanks for commenting.
