For a flavorful and attractive side dish, try this refreshing salad. I fix it ahead to give the flavors a chance to blend, which also eliminates last-minute fuss. Family members and guests always tell me how much they enjoy it. - Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana

I'm not a huge fan of watercress, but I really enjoyed this salad. The sweetness of the fruit balances out the peppery flavor of the watercress.
