Let's Dish
I recently bought a salad like this from my local supermarket deli and new I had to try and recreate it at home.  I'm not going to lie, my husband and kids wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole, but I love it.  I make up a batch and keep it in the fridge for several days worth of healthy lunches. 

Who Dished It Up First
This is an original recipe inspired by my supermarket deli.
