Yummy!! This recipe is going to be a summer favorite around our house. Only thing I did differently was serve the dressing on the side. A definite keeper!! Thanks Barbara!

Such a delicious refreshing salad! Plain yogurt works fine for those of us who may not be able to find pina colada yogurt. Thanks for the fresh flower garnish idea! I grow colorful nasturtiums in my garden - a festive and peppery flower perfect for this spicy salad!
