This dressing is just a perfect balance of flavors. I toasted some walnuts, chopped them, and added them to the lettuce. We’ve had this with steak and with a special mushroom pizza, and the salad disappears from the plates first.
excellent
Tangy and delicious. I used gorgonzola, but otherwise followed the recipe. I made a dinner sized salad with shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, red pepper strips, cucumber, green onion, avocado, and fresh basil. We used about 1/2 - 2/3 of the dressing.
