For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the mayonnaise mixture.

Feb 22, 2024This recipe is a lifesaver! I made it for my friend's baby shower, and everyone raved about it. The curry powder adds such a unique flavor.

Jan 20, 2024Easy to follow and delicious! I didn't have pecans on hand, so I used walnuts instead, and it still turned out great.

Dec 24, 2023I've made this several times now, and it's always a hit. I love the combination of sweet and savory. I sometimes add a little bit of Dijon mustard to the dressing for extra tang.
