The whole family really liked this salad. I halved the recipe and followed the directions and it was perfect. The combination of the cashews, swiss cheese, fruit and the dressing was delicious. I did however only use half of the dressing so I'll be making this salad again this week to use the rest. Thanks for the recipe!

Every single time I make this salad people demand the recipe. It's SO good and very versatile. We like to add more of the fruit/nuts/cheese than the recipe calls for because that's how we like salads; but the flavor blend is awesome. I would highly recommend making the salad dressing as it appears in the recipe - I have yet to find a bottled dressing that complements this salad so well.

I don't give out 5 star ratings as often as I used to but we really enjoyed this salad and it is a definite keeper. I made a few small changes: chopped green leaf lettuce instead of romaine, roasted pecans instead of cashews, at least twice as much apple and pear and about 2 TBS less sugar. I wanted to have everything ready about an hour before it was time to toss everything together so I tossed the sliced apples and pears with some of the dressing. Besides staying nice and white they absorbed some of the wonderful dressing flavor. We enjoyed the Swiss cheese, but I want to try this with blue cheese next time. I think the sweetness of the dressing and the saltiness of the blue cheese would be perfect. 12/2004 Update 9/2007: I finally made this using blue cheese and I love it! My husband and I both liked it much better than the swiss cheese and this is the only way I will make it from now on.

This is a delicious versatile salad recipe. The dressing is delicious, but not overwhelming, and very complementary of the other flavors. It was a great addition to our holiday menu.

Amazing salad! Next time, though, I might try to make it a little healthier by using much less of the dressing.

This recipe was absolutely amazing! The Swiss cheese was perfect with the sweetness of the pear and apple. I cut the sugar down by half and didn't need as much vegetable oil. I shaved a block of Swiss cheese over the top of the salad to meet each person's taste. As many other people have already said, I have a lot of dressing left over! No problem at all, it will be put to good use. Please try this recipe!

It was wonderful!!! I used baby spinach mixed with romaine lettuce, because I love spinach with the sweeter dressings, and pomegranates instead of dried cranberries to make it extra fancy for Christmas, and it was great. I added more apples and pear, and sugared almonds instead of cashews. One of the best salads I have ever tried. Thanks!

This was wonderful! I did change a couple of things. I used honey mustard dressing instead of the Dijon mustard, since that's what I had. I also substituted pecans for the cashews and used cheddar cheese instead of swiss. Also added a little extra onion, which helped to cut down on the sweetness. But I'm sure it would be fabulous made as is.

Good solid salad that received compliments from others during Thanksgiving! It was just a little sweet for my taste so I would add less splenda next time. Even got enjoyed as leftovers for several days afterwards and was eaten up!

Great salad. We eat salads every night and I am always looking for different variations. The only changes I made were spicy brown mustard for dijon(not a fan) and I used Oraganic White Cheddar Cheese(thats what I had on hand). This will definately be in my rotation.
