A delicious little salad! The dressing is very good, I used romaine lettuce and Danish blue, sprinkled some additional bits over my plate because I loooove blue cheese!

This is a fabulous dressing, easy and fast to make. I loved it dribbled over tomatoes. I'll be making this often, thanks for posting MarieAlice!
