Food Blurb: African Food: What is African Salad?

The fun about being in social communities is that people often like to share what they eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, appetizers.  Sometimes they call food by a certain name and you think you never heard of it.  Then you realize you do know that food but where you live it has a different name.  A friend said they were eating African Salad for lunch.  I like the photo so I immediately Googled to get the recipe.  It was super easy to find.
