Amazing Recipe! I have made this for years. The only thing I do different is add 1/2 cup FRESHLY grated parmesan cheese! Very yummy! - 19 Jul 2009 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Delicious, and it makes an excellent presentation. I added crumbled feta cheese and cut back on the amount of dressing. - 16 Jul 2009 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
