We tried this recipe yesterday and LOVED IT ..... just excellent !! We really enjoyed the different blend of tastes and will be serving this for sure to our friends.

It's a wonderful small salad to start of a summer meal. I love belgian endives, walnuts and blue cheese but the piece de' resistance' was the dressing. It was to die for... I made it the night before my Mother's day dinner party and it had time to combine and mature. So good! Plus the way the delicate leaves and little droplets of dates, nuts and blue cheese looks so elegant and yet it was so easy - just remember to maybe have someone else watch the nuts roasting while you are cooking an extravagent feast. They were a little crispy ;)

This is so delicious. Inspired by an appetizer from Seasons in the Park in Vancouver. Don't be afraid by the Belgium Endive. Even people that have told me that they don't like Endive, have loved this salad.

Made this for a dinner party and it was a winner. It was more popular than the main course that I took all day to make.
Thanks.

My guests were so intrigued by this salad that they insisted on "helping" which meant that they joined me in the kitchen, assembled and ate each delicious leaf as they created them. They loved the flavors that, once combined, were absolutely addictive. Thank you for an incredibly simple, fabulous salad.

So glad you liked this. One friend of ours calls them "french tacos" (perhaps they should be Belgian Taco's).I love this recipe too. Simply and addictive.

Thanks for these "French Tacos". I normally find endive too bitter to enjoy, however, you can't go wrong with the combination of blue cheese and walnuts. It's one of my favorites, so I thought I'd give it a try. The dates add a nice touch of sweetness. It's a great combination of flavors, with the endive offering a nice, crunchy texture.

Wow, this was so good and deserves it 100% rating. Only change I made was to use pecans as hubby doesn't like walnuts. We have salad every evening and this was a great change. I will be serving this salad for sure at my next dinner party. Thanks Dawn for another great recipe.

This is quite possibly my favorite recipe on Rouxbe; it's so simple, elegant, and delicious. It's been the perfect opener for a number of dinner-dates! ;)

So glad you like them. I have to say they are one of my favorites as well. I have nicknamed them "French Tacos"...

I love to make them for people, just to see the look on their faces when they bite into them. Everyone is usually around when I am assembling them and they are always so surprised as to how easy and tasty they are.

I made the salad and coconut squash soup for a progressive diner for 6 of our Neighbours here in Canada, and would like to say it was a great success! Also like to say thank you for the great recipes and lessons, it has taken my cooking to a great new level, thanks again.

Great salad. I've never been a fan of either endive or blue cheese, but I've made this one three nights running and it's awesome.

Thank-you.

Yeah, so glad you liked it Matthew and good for you for trying it even though you didn't really like 2 out of the 3 ingredients in it :-)
