My mother used to make this same recipe and it was a favorite. I've continued the tradition. I tweak it a bit... add fresh spinach in place of some of the lettuce and add thin sliced red onion and thin sliced celery. Make in a trifle bowl for a beautiful presentation. I like to top with ringlets of red onion. Very pretty and delicious! Best if made the night before serving because the flavors really marry and enhance each other.

Need a fruit glaze or topping for pound cake? Just make a simple syrup and cook until it begins to boil. Simmer for five minutes and add sliced strawberries, peaches or any type berries. Spoon over cake and enjoy. It's great.
