This was pretty good and a little different than the usual salad. Added more honey than the recipe called for because the dressing that I used was pretty tangy. Overall, a refreshing and pretty salad!

This salad was very easy and had a very nice sweet taste to it, not too overpowering. Two thumbs up!
