  1. Wonderful! My kids even ate it and they hate everything. It's even better after sitting in the fridge for a couple days.
     
  2. We enjoyed this salad, but I would cut down on the oil by half as it left an oily taste in my mouth. Otherwise we enjoyed it! Thanks.
     
  3. Loved this salad! I made it one night and then we ended up out to dinner so we had it the next night, wasn't sure what the long marinating time would be like but it was great. Loads of flavor and a thumbs up from the whole family. I will be using this one again, it's a keeper.
     
  4. Fantastic! I didn't read the introduction until just now and realized that I didn't use as much slaw as I should have. There's still quite a bit left in the bag. I love the combination of flavors and believe that next time I'll use the whole bag and increase the cranberries accordingly. Made for Everyday is a Holiday Tag.
     
  5. This is a fabulous salad. I love the crunch and chewy, the sweet fruit, zippy onion, and sweet-sour of the dressing! I was also worried about the maple syrup because I detest it, but I could not make it out in the overall flavor. Infact I thought it might be fun to try subbing boysenberry syrup for an even fruity taste. I think this would be incredible with toasted walnut pieces on top as well. I do think I would cut back a "hair" on the oil as mine seemed a bit greasy. I plan on making this again soon, infact I am thinking for Easter dinner!!!

  1. Made this for company a while back & it was devoured quickly ~ WONDERFUL TASTING SALAD! I did use lemon pepper in place of the S&P, & probably used 3/4 cup of the cranberries, but then I LOVE THOSE BUGGERS, so . . . This is definitely a salad recipe I'll be keeping on hand! Thanks for sharing! [Tagged, made & reviewed in 1/203 Hit Wonders]
