Add dressing at time of serving. It is best when mixings are evenly coated. David and I would put the fixing in a big ziploc and add the dressing and then shake the bag. - 5/7/16

Delicious! The dressing was excellent and everyone loved it! It was a bit tricky to toast the almonds though... - 5/24/10

Very good. I used regular vinegar and it worked great. Will defintely make again. Left overs were good for lunch. - 6/2/08
