That Good Salad
When a friend shared this salad recipe, it had a fancy French name. Our children can never remember it, so they say, "Mom, please make 'that good salad.'" Now our friends and neighbors request it for potluck dinners. It really is one of the best salad recipes. —Betty Lamb, Orem, Utah

This salad is soooo Delicious and light Definitely perfect for summer ??
Salad is fine but the dressing is seriously lacking. I made this as part of a meal for a crowd of 60 and most plates went to the trash with most of the salad untouched. Several thought it was missing vinegar and I have to agree. It was just a near flavorless oily dressing without it.
We really liked this salad. Had to make a couple of substitutions. My daughter does not like Swiss cheese so we used an Italian blend and I had grape tomatoes in the fridge so we used them instead of chopping tomatoes. That said, even with the amount it made there wasn't any left after dinner. Next time, I will add some cooked chicken to it and serve it as dinner with some fresh rolls. But it will be made a lot in our home. Thanks.
I've made this salad, AT LEAST, 100 times!! I always use olive oil in place of the canola. I use grape tomatoes and sometimes I omit the croutons. Oh, and I use the package of 3 heads of romaine. I love this recipe because its tasty and it feeds a large number of people.
This recipe has been a family favorite since it first appeared in TOH in 1997. I was pregnant with our eighth baby
This recipe takes salad to a whole new level!! Delicious!! I used Le Gruyere swiss and cherry tomatoes. Also didn't have canola oil so I used light tasting olive oil. Can't wait to make it again.
Made this for a Super Bowl party - lots of good comments. Used cherry tomatoes - they keep better in left over salad - but there wasn't much left over. In addition to the croutons, I used some tri-color tortilla strips to add some color.
I didn't have Canola oil so I used olive oil. It was very good. Everybody loved it.
