    As others have done made the pomegranite molasses from Alton Brown, and followed the recipe exactly, just seemed to be missing something I added more salt and 2tbsp more of honey, still seemed lacking in flavor so I added some fresh ginger that seemed to help but not alot. It sure is fun to try new things tho:

    My love for Bobby is now undying. This salad is amazing. I'm eating it right now and without the greens. The apples, nuts, blue cheese and dressing alone are out of this world. The most incredible, layered flavor! The dressing is so soft, sweet and delicious. I couldn't find pomegranate molasses, so I made my own following Alton Brown's recipe for it. Easy! Thank you Bobby for the most fabulous, show stopping salad EVER. I entertain quite a bit and this is sure to be a monster hit at my next dinner party.

    Love this salad! It was served at a holiday party that I attended a few years ago, and I just had to get the recipe. I have since made it several times, and it's always a hit. I usually add some pomegranite seeds to the salad. I use Alton Brown's recipe to make pomegranite molasses.

    Made this salad last night and it was absolutely fabulous! I used honeycrisp apples. The pomegranate vinaigrette is sooooo good I will be using it on all types of salads in the future.

    I made a few changes and took it to a staff party where it was a hit. Everyone thought it was delicious and pretty for a healthy dish. Instead of hunting down the pomegranate molasses, I reduced pure pomegranate juice with a little sugar until reduced by half and a little syrupy. I also added more spinach than in the recipe and pomegranate seeds. They added pretty red color to the salad.

    I only made the Pomegranate Vinaigrette and thought it was very good.

    I make this recipe 9 times a year, ever since it aired on TV for the first time. The quantities are not correct with the apples in my opinion. I think it should be your own preference. The dressing is great the way it is and I always have some left over for another round. I don't always use the cheese when making it just for my husband and I. It's still good with out it.

    I cannot count how many times that I have made this salad. It is mine and my daughter's favorite. Whole Foods Market carries the pomegranate molasses. The combination of the dressing, greens, apples, nuts, and cheese is awesome!

    Tasted great. Crunchy, sweet, and tangy. Used fewer apples and added some escarole.
