My husband and I now have a new favorite salad! This is quick and delicious. Tastes like a salad you would get at a fabulous restaurant. I would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent dressing for this quick easy salad. Unfortunately I went shopping for spinach in the last minute but could not find any nice & fresh so I substituted with torn Romaine lettuce -very nice. I love the dressing with the Blue Cheese & walnuts Thanks Danny you have some great sounding recipes posted.
