| Old Fashioned Watergate Salad |
I decided at the last minute to make a dessert/salad to add to our Easter dinner table spread. I wanted to make a little something that would remind me of Grandma Bunni & making recipes that she used to make is always the way I like to remember her. I decided that the pastel color & light, fresh taste of her Watergate Salad was just the thing make. Lucky for me I usually have all the things needed to make it. It's perfect for today's Easter meal & it also makes a great dish to bring to a potluck, too. I can hardly keep J out of it, he just loves it! Good thing we are eating in a couple of hours. :) Happy Easter!
