Absolutely delicious side dish, salad, or even main dish! Love it!
Made this just today for a group gathering and it was a smashing hit. Not any left to see if it would 'marinate' and be even better tomorrow. Guess I'll just need to make another batch. Super easy - I made it with Maisie Jane's honey sliced almonds instead of pecans and it was FABULOUS (oh, and I used a blood orange olive oil too). Highly recommend it!

This salad has become a family favorite, so refreshing on a hot summer day! We made one little change. In place of plain olive oil we use roasted garlic olive oil Mmmmm
