Wanted to try this recipe because it looked interesting, enjoyed it. I Made exactly as recipe said except used celery salt instead of seeds only because I didn’t have any, the pecans and brittle make this recipe, don’t omit. I used munch candy bar pieces, you can buy at Walmart in bag on candy isle in grocery section. I used Kraft honey mustard dressing. Thanks for sharing it was a fun recipe to try.
