I created this salad in honor of Memorial Day. Crisp, cool, tart and sweet, it's one delicious and beautifully colorful salad! The crispy bacon adds a touch of salt to balance out the tang and sweetness. It was so good that it had me wanting seconds! *Amounts listed for the salad are per serving. Amounts listed for the dressing will make one pint, but may be halved.
