Sweet, sour, tangy, creamy and crunchy-this is the ultimate salad. So many tastes and textured, we just love it. You can substitute strawberries for the apples. YUM! Also good with grilled chicken or grilled shrimp! Cooking time reflects the preparation of the pecans. It makes a lot, though...so once you have them made, you have enough for several salads.
