With all its fresh ingredients, this pretty spinach salad was my grandma’s favorite. Even my little ones like it (but don’t tell them spinach is good for them)! —Shelley Riebel, Armada, Michigan

I have made this salad several times, and it is always well received by family and friends. After the first time of following the recipe exactly, I learned that it calls for way too much sugar. I found reducing the sugar in half greatly enhances the outcome.

My husband and I both love this recipe. I served with either a strawberry vinaigrette or a red wine vinaigrette. Eat it as a side or add some diced or shredded rotisserie chicken to it just before serving for your entree. Very Good!

It is a very good salad and I have made it before, so this time I decreased the sugar to 1/4 cup and it was just as good.

I make the dressing in the pan that I cooked bacon in, removing most of the fat, add balsamic vinegar and garlic powder (just a sprinkle) and a little sugar. It is one of my family's favorites!!

I have a mixed review on this--the salad was great, however, I really didn't like the dressing. I tasted like all oil. I used a strawberry vinagarette instead.

I have been making this salad for years. The dressing can be made the day before and pulsed in a blender. I add dry, seasoned. Stuffing mix and toss just before serving. It is always a hit at potluck!,

This was a great salad and I will make it again for adults, but it was not at all a hit with any of the kids. Not one of the 8 kids in attendance would even touch it with all the onions, mushrooms, and vinegar as ingredients. One kid did pick out some boiled egg. But they loved the cherry Jello I fixed just in case.
