Simple, Delicious. Great all year round! On the side or on it's own. The Crunch of Walnuts, Sweet Cranberries, and Grated Pecorino Ramano Cheese makes this one a hit! Ingredients:
1 head leaves lettuce (i.e., romaine, green or red leaf) |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries |
1/2 cup grated pecorino romano cheese |
olive oil |
Directions:
1. Wash, dry and break up lettuce. I use a mix of lettuces for color and texture. In a large mixing bowl, toss lettuce with cheese, cranberries and walnuts. Add olive oil enough to coat, and toss well,
2. I love to add in:.
3. Crusty Seasoned Croutons or Yesterday's leftover Crostini.
4. 1 C Black Olives.
5. 1/2 C olden Raisins.
6. I don't often add tomatoes, as I think they tend to get lost in this salad. But feel free to add them if you need to.
7. I have made this in the Summer as a light meal, and I've made it along side of Thanksgiving Dinner. It's quite versitale, and everyone loves it!
