Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This makes a gorgeous presentation in a tall, clear salad bowl, but tastes just as good when done in a 13x9 dish. For years, Dirk Russell (Aubrey's husband) didn't think it was really a Warren family gathering without this dish. The mixtures of sweet/salty/smoky and creamy/crunchy as well as the bright color contrasts make this a feast for all the senses!
