made this last night. used golden raisins instead of apples, because i didn’t feel like driving through the foot+ of snow to get apples. it was absolutely delightful.

I made this tonight and WOW—it’s GOOD! I used Chinese cabbage and feta and ate it right up. And then I blogged about it. Thanks!

I prepared this salad with feta, and prosciutto on the side, to serve at a dinner of four. I used half & half instead of pure cream. Accompanied by your olive-feta salsa.

Yes, Napa cabbage is very similar to Savoy in texture and seems to be more available this time of year. I am sure bacon would be great as well. Can I come over?

Would this be as delicious if made with napa cabbage? I can’t find savoy! And I know this is supposed to be detox but I was thinking of adding a teeny bit of crumbled bacon. Is that so wrong?

The culinary powers of the universe are all aligned apparently, as my game of Internet hop scotch has landed me on your delightul doorstep. Even more kismet-ty in nature is I just picked my second to the last savoy cabbage and thought, “hmmm, now what new thing could I do with you?” Bramleys are in the fridge, walnuts rest in the tin and leftover cream and blue cheese need a new purpose. Dinner is served! (note to self: buy lottery ticket today.)

I made this dish last night, and it was so good! I’m really anxious to have the leftovers tonight with dinner as I think it will have gotten even better after sitting overnight in the fridge. Thanks for sharing!

That really looks yummy… somehow after a big heavy meal, something really nice & light & healthy is just what the body craves. Don’t you agree?! (But detox is def a necessity too!)

I don’t think I’ve ever commented, though I read you religiously. Love your blog!
Anyway, I wanted to mention that if you germinate walnuts they are much yummier. Just soak them for a day, changing the water a few times throughout, then lay them on paper towels to air dry, and all the bitterness will vanish. If you do germinate them, you have to keep them refrigerated because they’re more vulnerable to bacteria.

I swapped the walnuts for the spicy candied pecans you made a while back and opted for gorgonzola. I’m crunching away as I type this!
