"THE GOLDEN DRESSING for this salad is more than just a salad topping. It's excellent served as a sauce for meat or used as a marinade for vegetables. The touch of curry gives any combination of vegetables a wonderfully tangy taste."

Crunchy Cucumbers

If you want the cucumbers in your salad to be cool and crunchy, just chill them overnight in ice water. You’ll be delighted with the results…and so will everyone else! —Ruby W., Bogalusa, Louisiana

I would make this salad again, except for the dressing, which was disappointing. The hard-boiled eggs are fine but use a different dressing. Also, use the frozen green beans not the canned - the frozen have a much more appetizing color and fresher taste. Otherwise this is a salad with a very pretty, appetizing presentation.
