This was my new food processor's inaugural recipe. It was an easy dish to whip up on short notice.

Delicious!! I was too chicken to put in the cayenne. Maybe next time.

This is really, really good. I did not have the mint the last time I made it, so threw in some walnuts, raisins, and chopped orange to give that little spin a whirl. That version is divine too!!

Cranberries and pine nuts would be awesome. I was thinking the next day that a bit of apple would be perfect in there too, with some raisins.

Someone brought this to a potluck tonight (she told me she got it here); she added pine nuts & dried cranberries. It was delish! I really liked the slight cayenne kick! Thanks for posting it! :~)

I used the shredder blade on a mandoline. It's a very pretty salad!

This looks really pretty. What was your shredding method here?
