I've made this about a hundred times, and it's always a crowd pleaser. Simple, yet delicious. And, it goes great with almost anything!

This was good, my mother in law was very excited to see that I was serving a salad with poppy seed dressing. I especially liked that the dressing was not too vinegary.

Salad was wonderful. Like other reviewers, we cut the sugar to l/2 cup but would cut it to l/8 cup next time. We used white balsamic vinegar and took it to an Easter brunch. It had rave reviews. Definitely a keeper!

Very delicious, though I did add a little more fruits to the recipe. Since summer is all about fun colors I added grapes, cantaloupe, blueberries and toasted almonds.

Great taste but definitely reduce oil by 1/2 and use olive oil instead of vegetable. Also know that this is not a salad that keeps if you mix it with the dressing as the next day the strawberries taste terrible since they've marinated.

Very good. I used less oil and will use less vinegar the next time but very good. Topped my salad with the Kraft crumbles of feta, provolone, and parmesan cheeses. Also added Dawn's Candied walnuts from this site. Thank you!!

Delicious and easy. I make this quite often now with a couple of changes though - I use half white wine vinegar and half raspberry vinegar (very yummy!) and I throw a couple of strawberries in the blender with the other dressing ingredients and I add toasted slivered almonds to the salad.

This was a very simple recipe to make and it tastes great. It would be easy to add ingredients to the salad but it is great as is. I used red wine vinegar since I was out of white wine vinegar and I halved the oil. It still made plenty of dressing.

Very good recipe. After getting the salad ready I realized that I did not have white wine vinegar so I used what I did have-red wine vinegar and it was wonderful! I also sub canola oil; next time will use a little less oil. I also added some aliced almonds as some others suggested. Will definitely make again.

I always take this to get togethers and barbecues, and EVERYONE asks for the recipe! I usually only use half the oil and sugar, and I add two strawberries to the blender as well. Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this salad - even though I forgot to pick up the poppy seeds at the store. This one is a new favorite.

This was excellent! I made "Dawn's Candied Walnuts" from this site, and sprinkled them on top, and it made the salad that much better. Highly recommended!

I made this salad last night. It was quite tasty but I did feel it was missing just a little something though. I think if you added glazed walnuts and/or a light seasoned feta or gorgonzola cheese it would taste phenomenal!! I will make it again for sure andadd nuts/cheese.

This salad was the best salad I ever had. I kept the dressing seperate so my family could add as much or as little as they wanted and I also added 2 strawberries to it.I put 2 extra ingredients in the salad (Blue cheese and toasted almonds) It turned out fantastic. The dressing was my favorite part.
