CALIFORNIA SALAD
My sister-in-law made this salad for a family dinner just before my husband and I were married. In a hurry I wrote the recipe down. I've shared this recipe often through the years of our marriage. Recently at a dinner, my SIL asked if I made this recipe often. I replied that yes I did and every year I have to make California Salad. The look on her face was priceless and her reply was "I thought I gave you this recipe years ago!". After visiting on this topic further, we discovered I had abbreviated cauliflower to Calif. Salad thus it's name. I hope you enjoy!

CALIFORNIA SALAD AND DRESSING
This comes from "Pacific Fresh" one of my favorite cookbooks. The flavors are very fresh and delicious. This is a little on the sweet side but very refreshing. Great with grilled chicken or fish. Enjoy!
