Great salad! I would add honey to the dressing to make it sweeter, or use a HONEY Dijon mustard and it would definitely be a 5 star salad.

This recipe worked great at a dinner party I had recently! I couldn't find fresh blueberries so I substituted dried ones and I added some honey to the dressing. The flavor combinations were awesome!

We absolutely love this salad. Like some others, I cut out the salt. I also use about 3/4 the amount of vinegar that the recipe calls for...otherwise I find it has a bit too much bite for us (and we like foods with an ouch factor!)

This salad is wonderful! I made it without substitutions, merely ommitting the salt. The combination of the sweet, toasted pecans and vinagrette, offsets the bite of the blue cheese and tart blueberries. Using raspberry vinegar, instead of ubiquitous balsamic, gives this salad an innovative and unique flair. I think the combination of ingredients as written is what elevates this salad from being just another, run of the mill fruit, nut, balsamic salad interpretaion.

I loved this recipe, but made several changes because of what I had on hand at the time. I used white balsamic vinegar instead of the red wine, changed the pecans to toasted pine nuts and also used lite feta instead of the bleu cheese...fantastic combination of flavors nice change

Great flavor combination, perfect for summer. We already had a raspberry vinaigrette, so we used that over spinach, butter crunch lettuce from our garden, and topped it with pecans, blueberries, and crumbled feta. Absolutely delicious and done in 10 minutes. Yum!

This is a good salad, nothing special. I used walnuts instead of pecans. For the dressing I used olive oil and red wine vinegar. Since I didn't have raspberry vinegar, I replaced the sugar with raspberry jam. I thought the dresing was too salty using the recommended amount. I think a pinch, if any, is all the salt that is needed.

Love this salad! I used walnuts once and pine nuts another time because that's what I had on hand. This one's a keeper!

This salad is awesome. The combination of the blueberries, blue cheese and dressing are fantastic. I add some diced deli turkey for an absolutely delicious meal. I use chopped romaine instead of spinach and the colors are a beautiful presentation too.

My new favorite salad for spinach! I did not have fresh blueberries, but defrosted frozen ones in a water bath for 5 minutes. I am sure it would have been even better with fresh, but frozen were good too, just a little softer. I didn't have raspberry vinegar, so I used red wine vinegar and added few blueberries to the dressing and used a hand blender for the dressing. I also used toasted almonds because of an allergy. I have no doubt that the original version was as good as my substitutions, which received raves. Start to finish, it took less than 10 minutes. Thank you for the delicious recipe! Even my husband ate the spinach like this. : )

This was okay, but nothing special. I didn't care for the dressing at all and ended up using another dressing instead to be able to eat this. This dressing wasn't good at all with this. Sorry for the poor review, but I've made and eaten much better blueberry and spinach salads than this one.

I decided that I need to get some healthy fresh spinach into my life, so I bought my first bag and started looking for recipes on Allrecipes. I had to make some changes due to what was in the house, but the flavor blend of this recipe was great. I omitted the blue cheese to make it healthier and instead of making the dressing I simply added some dijon mustard to some raspberry vinaigrette dressing that I had on hand. This salad was so tasty and healthy. I will make it over and over again.

Very good. I also used toasted almonds and my son wanted to crumble up some colby jack cheese and it was delicious. Oh I also add a squeeze of lemon to the dressing. Thank you!

LOVED this recipe! My one mistake (made in haste) was blindly trusting that the amount of dressing in the recipe would suit my taste, and I ended up with a very soggy salad. Try starting with half, and work your way up from there!

I thought this was an excellent salad but did not like the blue cheese as it was too strong tasting I will make it again but use feta instead.
