    I served this to a room full of soldiers last year and one of them left with the recipe. It was a huge hit.

    Great salad. Next time, I will probably make it with just toasted almonds.

    This salad is a delight for the senses. First, it is beautiful. Second, it is good for you, and third it is delicious. I made this when I wanted a spinach salad but had vegetarians coming to dinner so bacon dressing was out. I omitted the celery (because it's the only vegetable I hate and added pomegranate seeds instead. This made a gorgeous emerald, orange, purple, and red-studded salad. I also used 2 tablespoons of sugar instead of 3 in the dressing because I don't like super-sweet dressings. It was perfect. If you're hesitant to take the time to caramelize those almonds, don't worry about it - I think it would be just as good with some simple toasted sliced or slivered almonds which you can buy. Make this salad...you won't be disappointed. Thanks, Emeril.

    I've made this salad 3 times and it has always been a hit. It's great for the holidays.

    This is my second time making this salad. The first time I used balsamic vinegar because I didn't have the champagne or white wine vinegar. It came out just as good. The second time I used the white wine vinegar; excellent again. l also used walnuts because I didn't have the almonds the second time. It really doesn't matter what nuts you use. Even my husband liked this salad. Emeril you out did yourself. This is a keeper.

    Saved! I made this today for Christmas Dinner. It is a nice light salad. I did add crasins, which we all thought went well with the other ingredients. I didn't have any white wine vinegar so I used 3T white vinegar & 1T white wine. Not sure it made a difference, but it sure didn't hurt. We put the dressing on the side as my hubby does not eat dressing on his salad. He did put a little bit on his to begin with & then added more. :- Tasty way to get your veggies.

    I made this salad with a few modifications based on what we had available. I omitted the onion and celery because various family members dislike them in salad. I omitted the hot pepper as well.

    Instead of almonds I used pecans since we have trees around here and have tons of them. I didn't have fresh oranges so I used mandarin oranges. I used lemon zest instead of orange zest.

    Everyone loved this salad, including the kids. I made it to go with a meal of venison, and it complimented the meat very well. Next time, I may add some bacon for a bit of saltiness as well. My favorite thing about this recipe is the excellent salad dressing.
