I was surprised by how delicious the dressing was -- much more flavorful than your typical balsamic vinaigrette, and actually kind of sweet. The balsamic vinegar came out crazy thick, but I think I just reduced it too much. A really tasty salad. Could have eaten a ton of it.

So simple and quick, but your results taste like something out of an upscale restaurant. I sauteed the garlic longer to infuse even more flavor and it tasted great. Another superb idea from Rachel Ray!
