Ohhh WOW............. We loved this, it just seemed sweet and sour all at once. SH hates sprouts and he picked off the pecan's, much to the disgust and verbal outrage from the sprout lovers! The texture's are so good crunchy and yet soft, the flavours are sour and yet sweet. Such a wonderful recipe that I have been asked to make again.

I loved the flavor of this salad-- the pecans went perfectly with the sweet-tart flavor of the sprouts and it made an excellent slaw. Thanks for sharing!
