Greens Salad (Shamrock Salad) image

I got this recipe from a newspaper a few years ago, made it and been making it ever since. If you love your greens, you'll love this salad. I have also used other greens on different occasions. Your choice on how much mustard you use......... 1 or 2 teaspoons.

SHAMROCK SALAD

A diabetic recipe I found on the dLife web site. Change the flavor of jello and cookie cutter you use and you have a Valentine, Halloween or a Christmas salad. I can even see this used for a baby shower and use a baby bottle cookie cutter. Use your imagination for the celebration you want to use it for.
