I made this for lunch today, and it is positively delicious! Making the nuts just for one lunch was a bit time consuming (although would be right on par for a dinner), so I think next time I will make enough for multiple salads. Also, I used the mini-processor attachment to my stick blender to make the dressing, ensuring it would not separate.
ETA: Hope you don't mind, but I added your recipe to a new group I started.

Thanks everyone. We just had this for dinner last night again and it was just wonderful. Easy for weeknight dinners, but with a little sass!
