Love the dressing on this salad! Very nice mixture of flavours in the salad, and the dressing enhances it beautifully. I was making it just for one so I just used one granny smith apple, feta cheese and bacon bits that I keep in the freezer. I will try it again with different kinds of apples and blue cheese. Thanks for sharing a very nice salad.
