This is GREAT! and so easy to make. Add some chicken or turkey to it and you have great low cal. lunch or side salad with dinner. I also add fresh sliced strawberries. - 1/21/09

I added red onion and turkey bacon. Wish I had hard boiled eggs. They would be great. - 9/6/09

I had lettuce, and pears-so this was a great recipe. I liked the last comment about adding chicken, that was very good with it! - 3/27/09

Love this combination - I cut back a little on the olive oil and added a few walnuts. Replaced the Parmesan with gorganzola. Yummm! - 11/30/10

This was delicious! I didn't realize until too late that I had run out of stone-ground mustard. I happened to have ground mustard seed so I used 1/2 t. of that instead. Would definitely make this again! - 8/29/10
