Eat Michigan Salad

“"I live in Buckeye country, that's the land of Ohio State University football to the rest of you. We love to tailgate and watch the Bowl games, and are always trying to come up with clever things to do to our biggest rivals up north, the Michigan Wolverines. The cherries and maple in this wonderful salad inspired the name. Enjoy!"”

Our family gets together often, so coming up with a new recipe is not an easy task. This got wonderful reviews from them. Used dried sour cherries. Will make again. Thanks!

I only made the dressing, but it was fabulous! I didn't measure it, but I did have to add more mayonaise to make it creamier.

Saw this on the site and made it for a WVU tailgate. I've made it at least 5 times since then! Of course we've renamed it Eat Pitt Salad!

Don't change a thing with this salad. It's wonderful. We've served it a lot this past year to rave reviews. I find we prefer the goat cheese to be room temperatue rather than ice cold from the fridge when serving. Thank you for making me look great at dinner parties, Saveur631!

This salad is aptly named for this past weekend's OSU / Michigan game, but aside from its clever moniker, it's delicious. I made this salad weeks ago when I wanted something different to use up some goat cheese. The salad was such a hit then, I made it again, but instead used small romaine leaves to hold all of the dressed salad components (like lettuce cups). Thank you Saveur631, not only is this salad tasty, it apparently is a lucky charm as well...

Used olive oil in place of vegetable oil. Fantastic salad!

This was wonderful and a big hit at my Monday night tennis! Was not sure about the dressing at first but everyone loved it! Good job!

Tried this salad because it looked wonderfully delicious and different. Couldn't even imagine the taste of the blend. Tried it and liked everything except the maple syrup. I was disappointed that I had tossed it into the whole salad. Other than that, the fruit, nut, cheese combo blend was yummy!

Excellent!!! Even my "gourmet" daughter asked for the recipe. We actually had "Eat M's Salad": due to picky eaters, I offered a choice of dried cherries (Mich.), cranberries (Mass.) or blueberries (Maine). All are good, but cherries are best. We are ... Penn State! (P.S. Made it for tailgate & the salad worked, PSU beat Michigan.)

This is an amazing salad! My daughter, who doesn't really like salads, said that I can make this salad anytime! I used spring mix lettuce opposed to the butter lettuce, used feta cheese instead of the goat cheese and I added sliced red onion rings! I live in Michigan and I am making this salad today for a tailgate party for the Michigan vs. Michigan State football game!
