I made this yesterday and it's quite good. I used the coconut and the nuts - just mixed the nuts in with the salad - but skipped the lettuce leaves. (It was too hot to worry about presentation.)

I made half by itself and half mixed with shell pasta and we liked the half with the pasta better - it cuts the sweetness a little. Next time I'll try elbow macaroni - they'll be a better size.

Dole Mandarin orange segments are packed in a syrup made with sugar, not HFCS.

I think this is best icy cold, so be sure to chill it for at least a half hour again after adding the fruit.

Thanks, Casey. Your summer recipes have been life savers during the heat wave. I currently have leftovers of this and of your pasta-tomato salad in the fridge, along with leftovers of RachelT's chicken-grape-pasta salad. And I'm going to make HanSolo's Asian rice salad again over the weekend. I can do the hot part - cooking the chicken and/or rice and/or pasta - in the evenings after dinner, then just put it all together for lunch and dinner the next day.
