This yard salad recipe, by Janet Walker, is from Our Family’s Table, one of the cookbooks created on FamilyCookbookProject.com. We help families or individuals create inherited cookbook treasures.
Although it is called “Cherry Church Salad”, it is affectionately known as “pink stuff” in our house! It is a light and delicious summer side dish, perfect for any type of barbecue or garden gathering.
