Robert's Instant Salad

This wonderful recipe is adapted from one by Curtis Aikens. It requires practically no work. On a scale of one to ten, one being easy, this rates approximately minus five. On the other hand, with some fresh fruit, cheese and crackers, it makes a lovely light dinner. If you want just a little more substance, throw in some sliced avocado. It also goes very well with cold soup. This yields four servings. Don't forget the wine.
