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.

Scrumptious!! I also added some thin sliced red onion. Loved the flavors of the sweet berries, tangy blue cheese and the red onion...sounds wierd, but really great contrasts of flavor!! Will make again.

Great recipe! I used olive oil and balsamic. Sweetened it with Stevia instead of sugar. Used feta cheese instead of blue. Still was GREAT! Had more of an "adult" flavor - my nine year old twins turned up their noses. Adults loved it!

This recipe served as great jumping off point. I had a lot of spinach, pecans and blueberries. I made substitutions based on what I had on hand. I made the dressing with 1/4 cup oil, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup of diet cranraspberry juice, 1 tablespoon of honey and 2 teaspoons of spicy brown mustard. I used grated Dubliner cheese instead of Bleu. I also added some marinated artichoke hearts which I probably won't add again. The recipe doesn't call for them but just an FYI.

Such an easy and refreshing salad! I omitted the dressing and bought Kraft Light Raspberry Vinaigrette dressing. The colors of the salad and the red of the dressing made it look beautiful too! I plan to make this a lot this summer!

I made this salad last Christmas for our potluck at work, everyone raved. Now I bring it to every event at work...by request! I used twice the spinach and the last time I made it I used raspberry balsamic vinegar....it was the best one yet.

This was so yummy! I didn't have bleu cheese so I used reduced-fat feta. The pecans were a MUST...made the salad excellent! Everyone asked for the recipe!

Wow, this was delicious! We absolutely loved it! I used walnuts & balsamic vinegar because that's what I had on hand. I also had frozen blueberries, so just thawed some out & they worked just fine. We will definately be having this again!

oh yum!!! This recipe is great . I made it for a get together and I was a little nervous cause I hadn't tried it before but there was not much left as I was leaving and a lot of people told me they enjoyed it. I used olive oil and balsalmic vineger( couldn't find rasberry)and used walnuts instead of pecans. Very good, healthy, antioxident rich salad. I will be making it many more times.

I originally looked for a unique salad recipe to accompany a vegetarian menu. My son is vegetarian, however no one else was. Everyone thought this salad was wonderful and wanted the recipe. It would also be delicious with feta cheese.
