  1. Perfect autumn salad! I made this as written, but decreased the oil to a little less than 1/2 cup. The sour cream (I used light) makes the dressing thick and creamy; it clings well to the spinach leaves. While the dressing IS delicious, it's appearance is a bit odd; it looks much like chocolate syrup. But don't be put off by the looks of it..... it's terrific! Thanx for sharing.
     
  2. Fantastic salad and dressing. I also added some orange segments. I think this would be good with any fruit if you didn't have the craisins.
     
  3. This was great! I decreased the oil to 1/2 cup and added a little more balsamic vinegar and a touch more sugar to taste. Make sure to stir really well. I was out of craisins but it was fine even without it. I also used goat cheese in place feta. I didn't use stars to rate this as I did change the recipe so much but the dressing is excellent, I think, regardless of what you put with it. Thanks!
     
  4. I can see why this was popular at he pot luck! I love "these" types of salads (with balsamic, feta, nuts, Craisins) and the addition of sour cream adds a nice depth to the dressing, making it richer tasting but not turning it into a creamy dressing. Thanks for getting the recipe! Roxygirl
