I'm allergic to nuts, so I had to omit them from the salad. It was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with nuts.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had a bunch of grapes and strawberries that were about to go bad, so I threw them in a bowl with some nuts and dressing, and voila! A delicious salad.

The dressing is amazing! I could drink it straight from the bottle. The salad itself is also very good, but the dressing really makes it.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less fruit next time.
