I also believe this needed cheese and it did, thanks to another person's suggestion on here. I added Gorgonzola cheese and it definitely added that much needed flavor. I rated it 4 stars because I thought it was very good but not excellent. It's the type of salad I didn't initially like but have an acquired taste for.

Not as tasty as I would have liked. The dressing was really acidic. I think it may have tasted better w/some goat cheese or something else...
