- Rosa says, "The creamy dressing is a nice counterpoint to the crunchy chayote and snow peas. In addition to being a refreshing salad which is unusual and tasty, the two different color greens of the vegetables present a pretty yin-yang picture on the plate. If you do not have plum wine, you can use sweet port or possibly Madeira. "
