Whenever she needs a potluck salad, Carol Dodds turns to this tried-and-true favorite. "It's among my most requested recipes-everyone raves about it," she writes from Aurora, Ontario.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I threw in some chopped carrots, celery, and bell peppers, and it turned out great.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the almonds from this recipe. It was still delicious, but I think the almonds would have added a nice crunch and flavor.

I served this salad with grilled chicken, and it was a hit! The chicken added a nice protein boost, and the salad was a great way to balance out the richness of the chicken.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before a party, and it was even better the next day. The flavors had a chance to meld together, and the salad was even more flavorful.

I'm not a huge fan of curry, but this salad changed my mind. The curry flavor is very mild and mellow, and it pairs perfectly with the other ingredients in the salad.
