Yummy! I added some apple and you must toast the walnuts to bring out their flavor. I only had balsamic vinegar dressing and that worked well.

Wow this was GOOD! I normally don't care for salads much because there just isn't enough to them for me. However, this salad was delicious and I could definitely eat this by itself for a meal. The feta cheese and the raspberry dressing were the best parts! Those who substituted these for other ingredients really missed out. This salad has great presentation too. Next time I have to cook dinner for guests this will definitely be on the menu!!

I used spinach as the greens and added green grapes as well as the blueberries. Because I was just using what I had on hand, I left out the feta cheese and substituted pecans for the walnuts. It was delicious!

Wonderful. I added some purple onion and used the raspberry vinaigrette recipe from this site (from Jan W. but didn't use the full amount of sugar). Excellent and healthy!

Great combo of sweet and salty flavors in this salad. I always add onion per other reviews, and I have also tried it with nectarine. Both are good additions. I'm not a fan of bottled raspberry vinaigrette, so I've tried a few variations on the dresing. I've found that both balsamic vinaigrette and a simple oil/lemon juice vinaigrette are good substitutions. Next time I might even try making raspberry vinaigrette from fresh berries and see if I get converted! This is definitely a keeper with lots of fresh variations possible.

So tasty when paired with diced golden delicious apples, shredded parmesan and diced grilled chicken. We enjoyed this for dinner last night, what a great main dish meal for summertime.

The only change I made was pecans instead of walnuts as that is all I had. For some reason I just didn't care for this as well as similar salads using other fruits like strawberries, dried cranberries and mandarin oranges. I love blueberries, but somehow this salad was just mediocre to me. Sorry!!

This is such a great and delicious basic recipe. I have been making various forms of it for several years, and have also used raspberries, strawberries, halved red grapes, or even pomegranite seeds! Also have used chopped pecans or sliced almonds instead of walnuts. My family hates feta so we always use milder soft goat cheese, which everyone likes.

This is a good recipe. I did make a few changes. Instead of greens I used spinach, swapped out the blueberries for dried cranberries, I make my own candied walnuts, and I used balsamic vinaigrette instead of raspberry.

Loved it! Toasted the walnuts and used a homemade raspberry vinaigrette, other than that I made it exactly as written. I will be making this frequently now! THANKS!

I like the simplicity of this recipe. I used balsamic vinaigrette since I don't like raspberry flavor. I would never have thought to use blueberries but they actually cut through the tartness of the dressing. I think this salad would benefit from some thinly sliced red onion too.

I made this salad for a bridal shower with 20 women. I received rave reviews and several women went back for seconds. I added homemade candied walnuts for a special touch. Definitely will make again.

Fabulous salad! I made a homemade raspberry vinaigrette dressing and this all turned out great. My husband wouldn't even try any, which was fine since that meant more for me anyway.
