First, I have not made last week's soup recipe, because I had not picked up the garam masala spice, only to find out that my back alley neighbor has some she is willing to share so I will make the soup soon.

I have not made this recipe either, but will for the church potluck. I think this is an old recipe that has been around for a while. Some of the comments were that it is a tradition for Thanksgiving and/or Christmas gatherings. I would think also for a Valentine's get together.

They call it a salad, though I think it fits into the dessert category.

Go figure. I gave my left over pretzel...
