pretty good; nothing spectacular, but a good strawberry/chicken salad. I used all romaine lettuce and sliced toasted almonds.

Great salad, and so easy! I prefer dried fruit in salads, so I dehydrated the strawberries, and they were a perfect complement. I also subbed agave for sugar and used fresh garlic. This would also be great with spinach, and maybe some green onions or shallot. A new favorite!

So so so good!! Loved it. I didn't think it was spicy, but I loved it. I had to sub a few things, like I did spinach instead of mixed greens, and used sugared almonds. I also added blue cheese crumbles.....the dressing rocks. I bet this would be good with blueberries or blackberries too. even nectarines.

I followed this recipe very closely-not my usual M.O.-& it was fantastic! Very well recieved by everyone that tasted it & seconds were taken! All I added was some celery as I had a lot & I switched to almonds for the nuts. The dressing goes well w/it & really thickens afterwards also. I used an egg slicer to slice the strawberries-that made it very uniform & much easier! Thanks, Leslie-I'll be making this often.

Wonderful! The dressing is amazing. I didn't change a thing with the exception of allowing each person to add their own dressing. Oh yeah and adding honey dijon mustard instead of dry. Yummmmm! :)

This dressing is sooo good. I add goat cheese in the salad and it mixes very well with the strawberry. I have made this many times now!

Looked stunning, and tasted like it came from a restaurant kitchen. I subbed regular mustard for the dry mustard (check the conversion rate online -- it's not 1:1), but followed everything else to a T. Absolutely a company-worthy dish.

This salad was very tasty and I made a few minor adjustments. cutting back on the sugar, adding a few extra veggies. But it wasn't spicy at all. I was hoping for a little something extra...still very good salad.

OMG!! This was amazing. I also used the candied pecan recipe from this site to mix into the salad. I've made it twice now in a week and everyone raves about this. The dressing alone is delicious!! You can use chicken in this salad, add blueberries or any other kind of fruit. It's just wonderful :)

I love this recipe after I made a few changes. First, I heated the vinegar with sugar, mustard and garlic just until the sugar was dissolved then pour in a blender and with blender running, I slowly added the oil. Also, I sprinkled a tiny bit of cinnamon on the pecans and toasted them. Good stuff!

Loved it!As others did, I added candied pecans. I used the "pecan snack" recipe on this site. It was so delicious and simple. It really wasn't very spicy though but I still was not disappointed.

I made this salad last year to go with Christmas dinner. It was a big hit. My guests always request it now. If you need further proof, my father-in-law does not eat greens, but devoured this salad. Enjoy!
