This is delicious. I changed the recipe to serve two, rounded off the measurements and it came out perfect. The dressing is wonderful, my hubby kept saying "outstanding" can't beat that :)

BIG hit at Christmas dinner! I substituted honey for the sugar per my mom's old recipe. My mother-in-law wanted the recipe. Cudos!

I served this at a Memorial Day party and everyone loved it. I didn't have water chestnuts so omitted those and used less oil.

This dressing is exactly what I was looking for...not too sweet and not too "vinegary". Made for a perfect dinner on a hot, muggy night. Thank you, SUZBO!

My husband said it is his new favorite salad and I agree. The only thing different is that I used Splenda instead of sugar...and used just a little bit less than the 1/2 C so it wasn't too sweet. Yummy!

This salad is very unusual and surprisingly tasty. I made 1/2 the recipe (as written), but added a little bit of salt. It is quite strong and you only need just a little bit. I served about 4 cups of spinach and still have dressing left. Instead of water chestnuts I added sliced almonds for crunch. My only complaints were that it was a little too sweet and the fresh onion was a bit overpowering. I will definitely be making this again but cut back on the sugar & onion or use onion powder instead.

I am eating this salad as I write. Amazing. I followed some others' suggestions but I think it's such a great base recipe that I still gave it 5 stars. The dressing is excellent. It does make quite a large batch, but I'm happy to have it around! Definitely looking forward to making this at my next potluck or dinner party
