    I made this salad for Sunday dinner, and there wasn't a morsel left over! It is simple to make (even if I did have to borrow a mandolin and absolutely delicious. I made it the night before but didn't add the dressing,nuts and tomatoes (and chopped bacon - just had to add someuntil the next morning. My family is already asking for more. May have to buy a mandolin!

    Very quick (disregarding the hold period, no cooking, and delicious. This will be a standard, especially in the summer.

    This salad is delicious, healthy, and "holds" well. The lemony dressing is especially good. I used toasted pine nuts since that was all I had, and they were great. This is a good warm weather recipe. Love it.

    I hate raw broccoli, but this salad was so good, and this will be my new way to get broccoli into my diet. The key is to slice the broccoli very thinly. I used the slicing blade on my food processor, and I highly recommend that method because it's really fast and not messy. I didn't use any nuts, but I didn't feel that this salad was missing anything. I love the basil in this. I would make this for a party and I think it would be a big hit.

    So good!! Took the "semi-homemade" route and used broccoli slaw bagged mix as well as a bag of florets. Still got that great "stalk" flavor. Made the dressing exactly, except cut the salt in half, after reading reviews. It was perfect. Thanks Alton, you are a genius!

    I think the mandoline is important for this recipe. I have made at home with the mandoline and at a friends house without one and there is a difference. I would compare it regular spaggetti and angle hair which taste totally different with the same sauce. It is much more intense with the thinner slices. IMHO :. Itook the advice and cut back on the salt.

    I've made this salad many, many times since watching the episode. Parties, holidays, pot lucks, tailgating... you name it! And every time everyone goes crazy and wants the recipe. I do use almonds, personal preference, and I also use a lot more basil than the recipe calls for - a big handful! So good!

    Light and tasty! I too sliced the broccoli with a knife. I did not have basil so substituted cilantro.

    I made this last night to go with grilled flank steak. It was absolutely delicious. Will make it again and also share with my broccoli lovers.
