This recipe was provided by the Pritikin wellness center cooking school and it’s a great starter for any dinner party. I made it for myself, and loved the combination of flavors and colors in the salad. The recipe makes 12 servings, and it did keep well for a couple of days in the refrigerator (I stored the veggies separate from the lettuce).
