Mom's Salad Recipe In Her Handwriting

My mother was always taking every advantage to collect recipes (maybe that's where I got my love of recipes?) and wrote them down on whatever was handy at the time.  Today I came across this hand-written recipe on the bottom of a sheet of notebook paper.  I remember she was so proud when she made this salad.  Dad took one bite and said, "I really don't like it.  I hope you don't make it often."  She looked so deflated; she loved it.  To solve that problem she often took it to pitch-in meals where she enjoyed it and dad didn't touch it!
