    Just made this for a dinner party last night and there was hardly any flavor--basically, it tasted like cooked barley. Which was disappointing since I love all the ingredients on their own. I told my boyfriend I thought it was a dud and he agreed that it was the only dish that didn't taste "inspired". (also the only dish we didn't run out of, so I guess our guests agreed. I followed the directions exactly with very fresh ingredients without adding the fennel because I'm not really into that flavor. Won't be making this again.

    This was a really good recipe. I didn't have fennel so I used sauteed onions, too. I used sliver almonds instead of pine nuts. I will definitely make this again!

    Alton hits another home run. This is tasty and versatile. I didn't have pine nuts so I threw in some peanuts that I roasted in the oven. I didn't have fennel so I sauted some onions ( I know completely different flavor, but it was awsome. I have even mixed in some sauted frozen veggies and tried it with sunflower seeds. I like it with pine nuts also but they can be a bit pricy. Thanks A.B.

    This is a great recipe, really tasty and satisfying. It has a wonderful texture, it's crunchy and the the flavors work well together. I will definitely make this again.

    Made this for a cookout and everyone loved it. I thought it was a really nice change from the usual.

    Strong fennel taste overpowered the dish... I did not like it at all.

    This is, simply, a great salad. I picked it because of its ingredient list, as it contains things I love (bacon, pine nuts, fennel. So easy. If the most complicated thing I have to do for dinner is fry some bacon, I'm a happy girl. I added a little balsamic to the dressing- this was a good choice.

    Very easy, very yummy. I thought the dressing would be "blah", but it complimented the bacon well.
