I'm not a huge fan of grapes in salad, but I thought they worked really well in this recipe.

This salad is a bit too simple for my taste. I think I'll add some roasted nuts or seeds next time.

I found the Stilton to be a bit overpowering. I think I'll try it with a milder blue cheese next time.

This salad is a flavor explosion! The combination of sweet grapes, tangy apples, creamy Stilton, and peppery mesclun is divine. I love how the vinaigrette dressing ties everything together. It's a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory.
