I highly recommend this salad! I substituted red gala apples and gorgonzola cheese. After all the ingredients were tossed together, it was incredibly flavorful. The apples really added to the colorful look of the salad. I had a fun time candying the walnuts and they added the perfect sweetness. - 5/16/11
