very bland but can be adjusted
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

i usually love giada's recipes but unfortunately this one just did not do it for me. i doctored it up w/ more salt, a little... dijon mustard, rice wine vinegar and a pinch of sugar. lemon zest would definitely brighten this recipe up as well. i ended up tossing in arrugula instead of romain to give the salad more flavor. the end result was actually good, much better than the original.Read more

Very good!

Simple and quick to make. Travels well for picnics since there's no mayo in the dressing. Delicious!

Yum!

Easy, and a little different. I loved the parmesan chunks in the salad. Please note, the picture is incorrect; someone must... have posted the wrong one. The actual salad looks nothing like that!Read more
