This salad is amazing - easy to make and one of the best combinations we've had EVER!!! My husband loved it - wants to serve it for all our company dinners! I made my own poppy seed dressing from scratch, since I didn't have any bottled dressing. Also used the fruit I had on hand: ripe peaches, ripe fresh apricots and blueberries - the rest was the same as listed in recipe. I will make this salad all summer with whatever fruit I have on hand as it is equally good with any fruit. Awesome - almost like a dessert - a KEEPER!!!

Took this salad to outdoor brunch in large open bowl and gathered rave reviews from all! The presentation is beautiful! Used (all natural) dressing, and a mix of spinach and arugula! Tip: 'hold' on dressing salad til serving. It's a new combination of flavors, and has already become a 'take-along' fave for 2012 events!
