Oh how I wish I could give you all a bite of this tasty wonderful salad!
If you've been reading my blog posts within the last couple of weeks, you already know that I was blessed beyond measure to get to visit with Tonya of
4 little Fergusons. I make a lot of her recipes!!
(And if you missed my post with photos about our visit together, click here
to read my post "I Heart 4 little Fergusons....A LOT!")
She makes the very best salads and I fell madly in love with this awesome and delicious salad that she made for me.
I had to make it soon after I got home. It's so tasty and keeps for days. It would be perfect for a potluck, picnic or any family get together. I can just about promise you WILL be asked for the recipe!!!
I especially love 'different...out of the ordinary' dishes and this is one of those.
I do have to say I like extra dressing and don't use the pinto beans. It makes a lot!
