Toss together desired amounts of each and top with favorite dressing, but Raspberry Vinigarette or Lemon Poppyseed dressing is very good. It is also good with any other vegetables and boiled egg.
Now that I am home here is a dressing recipe

Poppy Seed Dressing (wonderful)
1 cup vinegar
2 1/4 cup salad oil
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 1/2 dry onion
1 Tablespoon poppy seed

In a blender, add the vinegar and turn on. Slowly add the oil till mixed well. Ad the rest of the ingredients and blend unitl smooth and thickened.

Honestly though, I like the Maple Grove Farms of Vermont Fat Free Raspberry Vinaigrette. It is 0 Fat, 7g sugar, and only 160 mg. sodium. Best of all the serving size is 2T, and that is plenty. It is a great dressing for low sodium diets for this salad.
