Made this last night - very flavorful dressing. I got this recipe from Cottage Living, 6/2006, and made it with some adjustments. It originally called for 3 tablespoons sesame oil, so if you don't worry about fat intake (and are familiar with the relatively strong taste of sesame oil), go for it. Added a cup of leftover grape tomatoes. Also substituted maple syrup for the honey and I think it worked out well.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great! The dressing was a little too sweet for my taste, so I added a bit of lemon juice to balance it out.

This was a great salad! I used a mix of baby spinach and arugula, and added some grilled chicken for protein. The dressing was tangy and flavorful, and the salad was very filling.
