    It’s a go to recipe for me. I’ve made it so many times and everyone always enjoys it.

    One of my go-to recipes! So easy, delicious, and tastes even better the next day cold!

  • ggcooks on December 28, 2025

    Delicious and still tasty the next day when cold.

  • korkyporky on April 04, 2025

    One of my favorite salads of all times! Leads itself nicely to multiple variations.

    I was a bit short on cauliflower, so I added broccoli florets to the roasting dish. The combo of flavours is really good - tart, sharp, sweet & salty all play off each other with great effect. I chopped up the spinach (easier to eat) & added cashews for more crunch. My only issue is the serving size. I cut it in 1/2 (to serve 2-3) & the result was closer to 4 very generous servings. I will make this again...1/3 or even 1/4 for the 2 of us and a big bowl for company - and they might get pine nuts & bacon :)

    This was just okay for us. I expected to love this because I love all the ingredients individually, but the end result was underwhelming. I did appreciate that it was light and traveled well to work.

    This recipe has been in heavy rotation in our house this summer. I love it for entertaining as it's really a complete side dish to serve with something off the grill. It is a little bit of a pain to make but I've made it a day ahead and it was still great. I have been using dried currants instead of the cherries and I had a ton to use up and I find them less sweet then the dried cherries.

    Yet another winner for me, this recipe proves that Chrissy is a real cook that understands nuance and flavors. The dish was a symphony, the bite of the onion played off the sweet of the cherries, that played off the tang of the feta. The orzo and cauliflower was a good background that gave the dish a mouthfeel while the spinach rounded it all out. I enjoyed this dish and even though it was a PITA (lots of elements to make) I hope to enjoy it again soon. Photo included.

    This was delicious. I made half the recipe but less spinach (one 160g) bag. Added 2 slices of crispy bacon and small handful of sliced pistachios. Lovely - will be having again definitely.

  • aargle on January 13, 2019

    I loved this. It was easy and delicious. I made a couple of additions by adding crumbled bacon which I roasted at the same time as the cauliflower. I also added chopped roasted almonds to add texture. It was equally delicious the next day.

    This was good and I'd definitely make it again. It's simple, yet flavorful. The only things I'd amend are adding some crunch or textural difference for a meal. We threw in some pistachios, which worked nicely. I also used lemon olive oil and put the lemon zest in, too. It's nice for a side dish or picnic / pot-luck. I'd also recommend adding the spinach when serving so the leftovers stay nicer.

  • anya_sf on August 03, 2017

    This was good as written, but GREAT with bacon added. I roasted the bacon at the same time as the cauliflower, then crumbled it in the salad. The bacon paired well with the other ingredients, especially the cherries. However, I might reduce or omit the cherries next time, as my family didn't love them (maybe mine were too ugly, as they were unsulfured), although I liked them. I omitted the onion, as we don't care for raw onion.

  • MeganGarcia on June 13, 2017

    This was delicious. I prepped the cauliflower, red onions, and orzo mixed with the dressing in advance and kept it in the fridge. I mixed everything else in at the time of serving, and it worked well. I used dried cranberries instead of cherries, and added chopped marcona almonds. I served it with grilled chicken sausage. Such a satisfying yet light meal.

  • e_ballad on June 12, 2017

    This was really tasty & if you toss the baby spinach through at time of serving, the leftovers hold up well too. I'm sure dried cranberries would make a good substitute for dried cherries if they're tricky to come by.

  • laur0684 on March 21, 2017

    I absolutely loved this one. Such a unique mixture of flavours. The sweet dried cherries pair so well with the salty feta and savoury roast cauliflower.
