Kraft Kitchens Tips

Make Ahead

Salad can be made ahead of time. Combine all ingredients except dressing. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Toss with dressing just before serving.

How to Toast Nuts

Toasting nuts adds crunch and intensifies their flavor. To toast nuts in the oven, spread nuts in single layer in shallow pan. Bake at 350°F for 10 to 15 min. or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

Love this recipe. Can sub the raspberries for strawberries and poppy seed dressing. To make it more of a meal add diced chicken.

Didn't get a chance to add the oranges, but this was a tasty salad! Since I didn't have any raspberries, I used strawberries instead which was excellent!

I thought this was a great summer salad. I have a friend who can't eat tomatoes and this was a great salad for her. It is a very simple salad with few ingredients.Great!

I made this on short notice with family coming over to our house. It was a wonderful salad and even the 4 kids liked it.

Made this salad tonight and my husband and I loved it. Nice flavor. Made it with chopped pecans as I had them in the house. Great for company. This one is a keeper. This recipe was in the new magazine that Kraft sent me with great summer recipes.

Dig into this colorful salad that's not only rich in calcium from the cheese, but is also rich in vitamin C from the mandarin oranges and raspberries. And as a bonus, it's also a good source vitamin A from the combination of mandarin oranges and salad greens.
