Orange Buttermilk Salad

By: Juanita Hutto 
"A dear friend shared this recipe with me years ago. Now it's my favorite dish to take to a church meeting, shower or any potluck event--it's always a hit. Whenever I serve this salad, people ask for the recipe. They find it hard to believe it's really made with buttermilk!"
