This salad rates up there with an aspic salad, for a tea. Like an aspic it is interesting. But it is also crispy, crunchy, salty and sweet. It is a perfect starter for a light meal. You will need to make this a day ahead of time so that the flavors meld.
7 ounces of Dried Figs, finely chopped, I used a pair of cooking shears and sniped the figs
4 ounces of Crumbled Feta Cheese
1 rib of Celery, finely chopped
3 Tablespoons of Walnuts
3 Tablespoons of Fresh Orange Juice
2 Tablespoons of Sepay Groves Olive Oil
Salt, if desired
Mix all of the ingredients together, except the walnuts. Refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve. Add walnuts.
Enjoy!

I grew up with 2 figs trees and absolutely adore figs. This was a wonderful use of dried figs. It was so delicious that I took it with me for lunch, in my Tupperware Cold Cup. Nancy
