This nostalgia salad is a favorite childhood pastime meal. As a child I was the weird one that loved salads, I know weird right?!? I grew up eating thousand island dressing on my burgers, salads, French fries it was just put on everything. Well I'd wanted a salad just like I ate when I was a girl and throw it together in a snap.
