    This wasn't one I would be in a rush to make again, but it was refreshing and simple to prepare. I couldn't locate apricots so I made the salad with pluots, which is a hybrid of peach and apricot. It's really sweet, maybe too sweet for this salad, particularly with the balsamic. I loved the crunch of the hazelnuts and the salty bite of the pancetta helped balance the sweetness. I will try using apricots next time as the recipe calls for.

    What a great salad, It was lovely, the hazelnuts and the fruit I used a combination of Apricot and Plum in one. The season is over for Apricots. But it was faboulus. So tasty, and good. It was heaven. I would do it again and again. Its the perfect salad to make on a nice cool fall day. You can basicially use any type of fruit you want. Anything type goes with this. I would recommend it to anyone. Ur missing out if you haven't already made it.

    I thought EVERYTHING about this salad was perfect. Tons of flavor from fresh, natural ingredients and super easy to make. This is good as a main dish salad for lunch or as a side with a simple grilled fish dinner. Another winner - thanks Giada!

    I loved this salad! I found the vinaigrette very flavorful with such simple ingredients. It's great for the amateur chef as noted below & can be changed up based on what's in the market (in terms of fruit or greens - I would keep the vinaigrette the same. Thanks Giada!

    I think overall it's a great salad but the vinaigrette needs more flavor - perhaps some red-pepper flakes would help it. I will try it again but add red pepper flakes next time and also not use all the vinaigrette because it's too much for the amount of salad.

    This made a nice summer salad. Easy enough for an amateur chef to make. We served it with homemade gouda mac and cheese and it was great!

    The vinaigrette lacked flavor and the salad overall needed more seasoning. I may add sugar to the vinaigrette if I were to try it again. Also, the apricots would be extra yummy if brown sugar or cinnamon were added before grilling.
