"I made this to have when company was coming and it went so nicely with our Clam Casserole. I loved the crunch, sweetness, and overall taste of this salad. Great to have for Valentine's Day too! What better way to say I love you then with a beautiful red and green salad that is delicious and so pretty on the plate!"

"We absolutely loved this salad! I used a white balsamic rasberry vinegar in the dressing, which was wonderful. I didn't prepare the almonds as instructed in this recipe, as I had made extra the last time I made your Mandarin Salad (#40516) and used those. Most definitely a keeper--thanks for posting!"

"I loved this! Never had a salad like it before. I used Splenda in place of the sugar in the dressing and I may have waited too long for the almonds to brown because they carmelized and got like a nut brittle when I set it aside in a bowl. I simply chipped pieces off! I used real sugar for the nuts. This salad was simple to prepare and very pretty. The strawberries offset the sweetness of the dressing and nuts and onion added a terrific flavor. Thanks! I will make this next time I have company for brunch!"
