  1. This is a beautiful salad and equally delicious. This salad would be an excellent company dish and I can't wait to make it again. The only change I made was to use a balsamic vinaigrette vs. poppy seed dressing. Made for For Your Consideration tag game, October, 2014.
     
  2. I would classify this as a special salad. It's kind of alot of work to prepare just for myself. I could see this as part of bridal or baby shower luncheon. To save time, I bought the butternut squash already cut into cubes. I also used craisins instead of cranberries. For the store bought poppyseed dressing, I used Kraft brand.
