Got rave reviews all around for this salad! I used escarole, radicchio and arugula. It just goes so well together, particularly the sweet overtones of the dressing against the bitterness of the greens and the saltiness of the cheese. And you can never go wrong with nuts in a salad! This was delcared one of the best I've ever done, though, and that's saying something. Thanks!

Wonderful salad. I agree with fellow reviewers that you can substitute other greens or change the cheese. I also substituted craisins in lieu of pom seeds. My sister and I also made the Ultimate Beef Wellington and fingerling potatoes as well for Christmas. What a feast!

Great dressing! Made it for Christmas dinner with a crown pork roast. Very tasty. Incredibly easy too.
