2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
pinch of dried basil |
pinch of ground red pepper |
5 cups mixed salad greens |
4 cups torn romaine lettuce |
2 1/2 cups cubed asian pear (about 1 large) |
2 cups chopped granny smith apple (about 1 large) |
1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion |
1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled goat cheese |
Directions:
1. Combine first 9 ingredients in a bowl, stirring with a whisk. 2. Combine salad greens, romaine lettuce, Asian pear, apple, and red onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with vinaigrette, and toss well to coat. Sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese. |
