I just visited a friend in Tennessee and she served this salad and gave me the recipe. Similar to others. It did have onions but cut so small you would not know they were there. She used a vitamix to chop everything and it was made in a jiffy. She did not add bacon or nuts and it was delicious. Probably equally so with those additions. Figure I can do without the bacon since it was still good.

Do not mix dressing into salad until ready to serve to avoid limp veggies.
