Kelly's Wedding Salad

"This is a light, refreshing salad. Perfect for lunch or to start off a meal. This is a scaled down version of the salad that will be served at our daughter's wedding. The caterer was generous enough to provide us with the recipe. Note: Cooking time is chilling time for the dressing."

  1. I used to eat something like this when I was young, slim, healthy and human in appearance. Best yet!
     
  2. What an amazing combination. I (and everyone else!) loved this. Will make again and again!
     
  3. This is a wonderful combination of flavors. I looked at the calorie and fat count and decided to lighten it up. The recipe was reduced to serve 2. Half the dressing was made and only a portion was used to dress the salad. One slice of crisp bacon was added and only a sprinkle of feta for flavor. The Red Bartlett is the perfect choice for this salad.
     
  4. This was a wonderful tasty salad. I enjoyed it so much. What a great lunch this quick and easy to make recipe made. The salad dressing was incredible...just loved the combination of flavors. Perfect pairing of sweet, salt, tart, tangy and spice. I did make some substitutions because I didn't want to wait to make it. I used romaine lettuce and roasted macadamian nuts, didn't have any mixed greens or sliced almonds. The substitutions tasted great with the rest of the ingredients. Loved the combo of bacon, pears and feta. I will make this dream again and again. Thanks for sharing.
     
  5. A very tasty and pretty salad! I loved the dressing! Thanks for a salad I will make again! Made for the Australian Recipe Swap.

  1. This is a wonderful salad - just the right amount of sweetness. Sometimes I substitute Danish Blue cheese for the feta (but that is because we have a weakness for blue cheese and pears). Thanks for submitting.
