Made this salad yesterday morning and then took in a cooler to the pool with the kids. I made just as listed but reduced the amount of hot pepper sauce and cayenne pepper for kids. Excellent salad and wonderful for a take along. Next time, for adults, I will keep the hot stuff at the amounts written as I like it hot! Also, I think next time I will up the pear and apple to two of each as we really liked those bits the best. Thank you Paula for posting this wonderful and unique salad.

This was good; I liked it better the second day when everything was really cold. I used a couple of tablespoons of fresh cilantro; wish I would have used a little more. Unique flavor with the spiciness of the dressing in contrast to the sweet/tart flavor of the fruit.

This salad was outstanding! The creamy-spicy dressing perfectly complemented the fruit. I soaked my greens (spinach and romaine) in ice water while preparing the dressing. I used rice wine vinegar for the vinegar. When the dressing was ready I spun the lettuce, topped it and served immediately. Everyone loved it! Cold, crisp and delicious. Thanks Paula!
