Summer Salad by the Lake
I came up with this recipe to show appreciation to all the teachers at my son’s school. The dish had to be as special as the teachers, who always go the extra mile for their students. I think this salad did the trick! It's hearty, earthy, sweet and loaded with nothing but good stuff. —Ramya Ramamurthy, Fremont, California

This was literally the best salad I've ever made. Huge hit among my family too! I didn't use pineapple because I didn't have it, and it was still delicious.
I don't understand all the halved garlic cloves! Seems strange; can these be omitted?
Pineapple and peas and couscous all in one dish? Who knew it could be so much fun! This salad has character and flexibility. You can substitute for the fruits, the grains and the greens . (I use kale instead of spinach or arugula.) Like a stew, this is a great salad that is a little different each time you make it. Really healthy and easy to put together!
Great for a summer potluck!
Looks so good! Perfect side for grilling.
