This tangy cheese ring can also be formed into a log. Although the jelly may seem odd, it is what makes this appetizer so good.

Delish! Even my husband loved it. Can’t wait to make it again!

I loved the idea of the fruit in this recipe, and the strawberries I picked up were delicious! I did feel like the dressing was not quite what I was hoping for. The amount of mustard scared me off, so rather than use spicy mustard I opted for country style Dijon—and that could have been my undoing. It was too mustardy for me (and I almost always add mustard to a dressing), and I had to add another teaspoon of sugar to try to offset it. I think I could save the rest of the dressing by doubling the other ingredients but with no mustard. Thanks for a nice refreshing idea for a salad!
