By itself, I liked the dressing and thought it had good flavor. However, on salad as a dressing, the flavor overpowered and did not compliment the greens.

A delicious change of pace. Followed the recipe and enjoyed the salad. Even those in my family who are not salad fans liked this.

I made this last night and refrigerated it for today. This is so delicious! My daughter says it almost tastes like a smoothie. And yes, I only had a bag of mixed berries ala strawberries, raspberries and blackberries and it is still awesome. Definately 5*. A summer-time al fresco staple!
