Great salad-I couldn't find grapeseed oil, so I used olive oil instead and it worked just fine-

This salad is fantastic and received rave reviews by recent dinner guests! I took the suggestion of another reviewer and added toasted pine nuts and crumbled feta cheese before serving, which almost makes it more of a Greek salad, and it was excellent. Definitely a keeper, and one I plan to make frequently!

My guests at a recent dinner party loved this salad. The bowl was completely empty! I could not find every type of lettuce, so just increased the quantity of what I could find. I believe the grapeseed oil has a milder flavor than olive oil, contributing to the success of the dressing.

This was an excellent salad. Will definitely make again. I couldn't find grapeseed oil so I used olive oil. I also couldn't find escarole so I used an extra 1/2 cup each of radicchio and red leaf lettuce.

This was very good! I served it with stuffed manicotti at a dinner party and it disappeared! Everyone commented on the flavor of the dressing and how tasty it was. This one's a keeper!

Very good salad. I just used bagged spring medley lettuce and cut the peppers into strips instead of rings.

This has become one of our favourites. I really enjoy the blend of lettuces and I often serve this salad with Italian meals. Thanks so much!
