It was ok...I wasn't in love with the vinegarette. Adding another Tb of vinegar after reducing did help some.

Spectacular, I had to make it two days in a row, because we were crazing it so much :)

Good way to change up salad. I tried this with thin cut salami was good. be careful it can get sweet.

This was pretty good but nothing so amazing that I need to make it again. The nuts came out a little soggy. It was a little sugary overall. I included the pear sauce so that is probably avoidable.

This salad was awesome! I cooked the pears too long, but it was still good.

Not worth the money or effort. The onion in the dressing overpowered the orange; I ended up using the vinaigrette from "orange vinaigrette brown rice salad" instead. That helped, but I won't make this salad again.

Delicious, but prosciutto always is. Even without it, the dressing and caramelized pears and walnuts were great. It was a little sweeter than I prefer, so next time I'd probably not add the sugar to the dressing.

I scaled the recipe to just 2 servings and didn't reduce the orange juice (just used less). The carmelized pears and walnuts were fabulous, and the vinagarette was delicious. It didn't thicken, but vinagarette is typically very thin. Served with a ham and cheese quiche for a great meal - the salad was made while the quiche cooked, and everything came out at the same time.
