This is one of my favorite salads, especially to take camping or to send with my husband on his hunting trips. I wouldn't change anything about the recipe.

I got to travel to the Amana colonies and eat at the Brick Haus a couple times while going to college in Ames. I loved eating the original there, and I'm so glad you shared the recipe. I too have been making it for years.
