--Edit: I would like to modify my review to say that dienia has edited this recipe to reduce the amount of mustard, and I will be giving it another try, because I know we will like it with the smaller amount! -- Although I like all the ingredients in this salad, I felt there was just too much mustard in the recipe. 2 tablespoons overpowered the other flavors. I almost used less, but hate to mess with a recipe the first time I make it. Other than that, I loved the toasted almonds in there! It sounded weird but they were a wonderful addition. I think we would have liked this salad with a teaspoon, or two, of the mustard. Or maybe a less strong mustard than yellow. It tasted better the next day, but still too heavy on the mustard. So sorry, dienia. I love your recipes, but this one didn't work for us.
