     I made this recipe for a very un-picky family, and nobody really cared for it. I LOVED the look and flavor BEFORE I added the dressing. But the dressing made it look very unappetizing, and muddied the flavors. I plan to try the basic salad recipe, but add a brighter dressing -- probably citrus. - 1/11/09

     This is wonderful! Can't wait to serve it to guests!! - 4/24/09

     I really enjoyed this salad and will make again. I did add a fair amount of minced fresh ginger to my soy sauce and let it sit for a few hours before mixing the salad. I love ginger and think it did add to the dish. - 1/25/09

     Fatastic! Great flavor. Served with jasmine rice and a soy/garlic/ginger marinated pork tenderloin. Everyone in the family (husband, 10, 8, and 6 yr old) loved it. - 1/19/09
  • TTSHOLLAND1
     great recipe, served it over couscous and sliced chicken that I marinated in a tbsp of stir fry sauce. YUM - 1/15/09

     I loved it! I also added jicama and since I already had a bag of Cuties Tangerines I used those instead of the oranges. Awesome! Thanks - 1/12/09

     I prepared this salad with no substitutions. I liked the flavor and variety of ingredients but will cut the recipe in half before making it again as there are only 2 in my household. I would also reduce the dressing ingredients by at least 1/3. Best eaten day it is made. - 1/10/09

     A really refreshing difference! - 1/10/09

     MMMM Yummy! Salads were getting a bit blah but this one steps up the flavor. - 1/10/09
  • RICKIANN
     Always looking for new salad recipes! This one is SUPER. My family doesn't always like healthy, but with this recipe they didn't even know! Love it! - 1/10/09
  • HARPCATS
     Absolutely loved this salad. The combination of veggies with fruit is wonderful! I've made it a couple of time, substituting whatever fruit looked best at the market - papaya or melon works well, too! - 10/12/08

     IT WAS EXTREMLY GOOD - 7/24/08
  • CBMAHALO
     I thought this was a refreshing salad, almost like a salsa. I used it for a side to salmon and it was very good. I think next time I will cut down on the dressing just a bit. I used some grated ginger to flavor the soy sauce. YUM! - 7/18/08
  • JLCLANCY
     I received this as a Recipe of the Day yesterday and tried it last night....AWESOME!! It has a great clean and refreshing taste and my 13 year old even like it! Great idea (and I used the soy/stir fry for the steak too). - 7/15/08
  • VICKYWICKY1
     So refreshing! Very healthy! My 16 yo boy really like it. My 14yo visitor didn't like the cilantro. Great for those hot, hot days! - 7/14/08
  • SHERRI0351
     Even my husband liked this one! I served it on a bed of spinach for extra veggies. Very tasty. - 1/25/08

     This was a great and refreshing salad - will make again! - 1/13/08
  • OUTOFIDEAS
     I left out the stir fry sauce, added some sliced red onion and diced tomato...enjoyable. The Jicama someone mentioned sounds like a nice idea. - 1/10/08
  • GOFEESH
     Wonderful ingredients, great taste, refreshing and goes with anything. - 1/10/08
  • MBJOSEPH
     I LOVED this salad! Top rated for taste! I only had regular soy sauce, but I added a TBL. of chopped ginger for flavor to make up for it. You just can't keep it in the fridge for too long because of the avocado, but it will go fast! LOVED IT. - 7/15/07
  • QUERIAN
     After reading the reviews I made a different dressing using some of the reserved liquid from the mandarin oranges, the juice of one lime, 1 T extra virgin olive oil, fresh ginger and shallot. It was a refreshing burst of flavor! - 2/2/10
  • GRANMABOAT
     This made me hungery, and I have a ripe avocado in the kitchen.
    thanks. - 4/23/09
  • CNIERI
     This is going in my cookbook. I'll bet this will be wonderful with shrimp or beef added! - 1/12/09
  • SAMMY58
     Love the combination of fruit and vegiges, this is on the shoping list - 1/11/09
  • JODAFEEN17
     This sounds excellent, will make it on my day off. For added zing, I'll add dried cranberries as well, serve over spinach sounds like a great idea. - 1/10/09
