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
