Awesome! So glad I tried it out. I didn't have any tomatoes, which worked fine. I did add feta cheese and used raspberry vinaigrette to go with the cranberries. For a less sweet alternative, I skipped the cranberries and used Italian dressing. That was great, too! Both ways I combined spinach and a pre-packaged salad mix which went very well together.

This salad was out of this world. I made some changes at the suggestion of others. I added red onion and used gorgonzola cheese. Instead of walnuts I used pine nuts and I toasted them before adding them to the salad. I also used a Rasberry Vinaigrettte dressing. I will definately make again.

This was excellent, so tasty with a wonderful combination of flavours. The only thing I added was crumbled feta as per other reviews. Will be making again and again. Thanks so much for sharing this great recipe.

Delicious salad. I made it by the recipe, took the photo, and then added crumbled feta afterwards (as recommended by other cooks).

Excellent combination of taste and texture. I didn't have any walnuts left so used sliced almonds instead. Hubby said it looked too good to eat!

Great idea, but I don't like the combination of cranberries, walnuts, steak and tomatoes.

We really enjoyed this salad as a main course, adding Parker House rolls to round out the meal. From adults to little kids, we all loved the flavor combination. The only changes we made were to use cherry tomatoes after reading some of the posts, and we grilled the steak instead of frying it. Thanks for a great recipe!

Although some might like cranberries and walnuts, it's not for me in the salad. But the raw fresh spinach and beef are appetetizing. Used thinly carved sirloin, cherry tomatoes halved, and of course bleu cheese. Dressing is up to the individual. A fresh vinegarette or Bleu Cheese compliments the beef. Warming the beef is fine, but don't get rid of that pink!
