We absolutely loved this. I used Zesty Italian dresing and followed the recipe to the letter, and it was wonderful. It's the perfect salad to serve with Hawaiian Chicken. The only slight change I made was I used refrigerated mandarin orange fruit cups instead of canned. Since they were already chilled, I was able to serve the salad immediately rather than refrigerate it.
