This recipe was a prize-winning entry in our 25th Anniversary Recipe Contest. 13 year old Elizabeth Popwell created this delicious prize winning salad. She said, "I love this salad because it has lots of flavors, sweet and spicy (the nuts give it the final touch!). I surprised my mom by creating this, because she said I was a growing girl and needed to start eating healthier. She said it was one of the best salads she ever ate� I was so proud of myself and she was proud of me too! P.S. It is also very colorful! Thank you." Thank you, Elizabeth, we loved it too!
