Thank you Laurie, We all loved this and as I look it to a get together with friends and people we did not know, I wanted to make sure that I cover all bases not to have any issues so decided to go with GF and Vegan. Obviously you can change this to suit yourself, but this was scrumdiddlyumptious for sure.

Hi Nancy, This is an awesome salad, although I have to say so myself. I made it and took it to a friend and they all raved about it and immediately asked for the recipe of the salad as well as the dressing. Hope you will try and also enjoy it.
This looks so yummy I must try it 🙂 Thank you for sharing, I never saw a site with so many recipes as yours.
Thanks so much for going to try this one. Our guests loved it and I gifted the left over and the sauce to our host and she was over the moon and said she has never had such delicious salad and sauce. I must admit we loved it as well. Something different. Thanks for the compliment, you’re so sweet.
