Very easy recipe. It was made for a school Spanish class party by my daughter; everyone, she said, loved the dip!!! She forgot to include the layer of green bell pepper; but she said no one missed it. I think it needed the crunch of the bell pepper. I also don't think it needs the mayo. The cocktail sauce gave it a nice zing. Next time, I am going to mix cream cheese and sour cream with some chopped cilantro; skip the mayo. Definitely will use a spicier cocktail sauce and salsa. The cucumbers were a very nice touch. Used multigran tortilla chips to eat with dip. This recipe is a keeper!!! We will make it again, with a little tweaking.

Yummy!!! So easy. Made about 80 pieces. As other reviewers noted, cannot find round pretzel rings. Used square ones, with hershey kisses and M&Ms. My daughter made them as teacher gifts, she really enjoyed making them. We did have to cool them about 30 mins. in fridge;could be due to the day being very humid and hot. Might have affected kitchen temp. When my daughter brought the few remaining pieces home from her school party, the chocolate was still firm and the M&Ms stayed in place. I think this was due to the extra firming time in the fridge. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Will look for the ring pretzels closer to holidays; they may be available then.

I cut down the amount of sugar by half in the dressing. Even though I tripled the amount of spinach and used twice the amount of strawberries, added string red onions, there was still lots of dressing left over. Everyone loved it, all the salad was gone, next time, will add more spinach and more berries.
