    Incredible!
    I love fruit in my salad! I used a spinach/romaine mix and subbed blueberries for mandarins and chives for onions. Also used PN's low cal vinagrette dressing. Excellent! - 6/3/10

    Sounds yummy but I am going to try it with chicken and Mogirl's suggestion of using raspberry vinegarette instead of red currant jelly (I've never heard of this either). - 12/18/08

    I make a similiar sald using chicken, apples, and walnuts! The only difference is - I use mine for sandwiches; just add whole wheat bread, and whatever greens you like........... - 7/11/08

    I made this but used bottled rasberry vinegarette instaed of the currant jelly and vinegar. It tasted great and probably had less sugar and calories. - 7/11/08

    you list Strawberries as an ingredient but then in the directions you say raspberries. either or both would be good but the recipe should be re-written for one orthe other. - 7/11/08
