LILY TWIG SALAD



Lily Twig Salad image

I have no idea where the name of this salad came from but it is delicious. This recipe is from my sister and is a hit every time I serve it. I have never had leftovers and usually find myself foraging in the kitchen to make more no matter how much I made. I am usually not a fan of sweet dressings, but this one complements the saltiness of the bacon and the tang of the cheese beautifully. **The amounts for the salad are approximate. Use as much or as little as you want to suit your taste. Prep time includes the time it takes to cook the bacon**

I'm not sure why this is called twig salad, but it is so delicious that you won't care what it is called. It is a great crunchy combination with a sweet dressing that is perfect for any meal. I give credit to my friend, Mona who provided this recipe in our church cookbook.
