Harold's Salad Reviews

• This is an excellent recipe For the dressing, use Newmans Oil & Vinegar (or Italian, I believe). Its always better the 2nd day - I grew up eating it - Andrea is my mom, and Harold was my Dad. Thanks for submitting it Mom I just found it randomly on this site :)

• This recipe was very "blah". Edible, because it was so simple, but very boring. Also, directions say to add mushrooms, but mushrooms are not listed in the ingredient list . . .

• Loved it I had to leave out the olives though cause my husband doesnt like them.

• I made this for Easter dinner at Bette Jos 2011. Lacie said, "Mmmm. That salad is good" when she tried it so it must be OK. I liked it.

• I made it for a picnic. Everyone wanted the recipe. The only change was baby portabellos and Newmans own salad dressing.

• This is a very good recipe I made this pretty much as in the recipe with a few minor substitutions. My whole family was happy to eat this. I prefer my olives sliced, and I had a few cherry tomatoes to get rid of. Also made my standard vinaigrette dressing. Those were the big changes.
