I made this as soon as I saw it, this is an excellent salad. I brought it to our clubhouse for our weekly TGIF potluck. Everyone loved it! I had seen it on the airplane! Will be making it again!

I love the crisp, exhilarating flavors of this salad! It doesn’t look like much “on paper,” but wow does it pack a flavor punch! The ONLY change I made was to add a touch of Dijon to the vinaigrette to emulsify it. Otherwise, everything else was the same. If you can, try to get ahold of organic celery from C&B Farms in Clewiston, FL. You can cut the celery measure in half because C&B is SO flavorful. A real treat.

Excellent flavor! Nice change for the typical dinner salad!

I  want to make this 2/6/21 for super bpwl tomorrow. Can I combine everything except the romaine in advance? I also like the comment about adding some bllue cheese (probably on the side as not everyone likes it). Thank you. My rating to be determined, but sounds like a 5 to me!

This was a fantastic recipe. Full of flavor. I suggest using a wide variety of olives. We used some of our blue cheese stuffed olives for Bloody Mary’s.

Nice way to use up celery, I also had a half a cuc and threw that in. I used an olive salad as the olive mix and a jar of pimentos. Very refreshing.
William Crawford
Excellent. We get tired of the same old salad ingredients and this was easy and a nice twist. Tangy is a good description by the other reviewer….. served with Katie Lee’s Eggplant, Tomato and Mozzarella Bake. The house smelled so good, like an Italian restaurant.

Refreshing and easy! I used fresh red peppers instead.
