As an accompaniment to this salad, 2 distinct side dishes come to mind:
First, a cole slaw would go nicely with this salad.
Secondly, how about a fruit salad featuring mandarin oranges and seedless
grapes.

"And the angel said unto them, "Fear not! For, behold, I bring you tidings
of great joy, Which shall be to all people. "For unto you is born this day
in
the city of David A Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a
sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, Lying
in
a manger.
--St. Luke ii. 10-12"
