Pickle salad

First the recipe is simple. Add a dill pickle cut in cubes to any salad with a Balsamic or Italian dressing. It adds crisp, salt, and a great flavor!

How it came about....I was talking in German to my aunt in Germany...mind you... I don't speak it well. She said she was just making my folks dinner and was serving a salad with cheese, meats, and pickles!!!
Ohhh! so I thought I would try it here in America. I would add a little German to my food as I was cooking for guests! It was very good! I loved it but ya gotta love pickles to eat it!

Later that week, I called my aunt to tell her that I had made her German Pickle salad. She said " Did you put it in a green salad?" I said yes and she was quiet. It was meant to be in a potato salad!!!! Well, lost in the translation.....I added pickles to my GREEN salad and I loved it! Try it...something different, filling and good! enjoy!
