    Very fresh tasting, totally enjoyed it. I omitted salt and pepper and oil, but loved it.

    Sunny's No Ho Hum Holiday show has given us an entirely new family tradition: her Butterflied Cornish Game Henswith Sage Butter as an entree, this salad as a fetured side and Mini Espresso Cakes with Peanut Butter Icing for dessert. Everyone has their own "birds" and their own individual cakes - they love it! I tried it one year and now it is a MUST.

    This salad is sweet, tart, crisp and delicious. It is similar to a Waldorf Salad, but the pears add a nice change. It is colorful and festive. It also refrigerates well.

    I made this for a friend’s Sukkot party to rave reviews and will be serving it for our Thanksgiving feast as well. The only change I make is to substitute dried cranberries for the raisins.

    It’s a great, fresh, light harvest salad... Delicious!
