Ingredients:
1 small red onion, halved |
3 ounces soft goat cheese |
1/4 cup buttermilk |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil |
1 tablespoon horseradish, drained |
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard |
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper |
1 pound small red-skinned potatoes, sliced |
4 large eggs |
8 ounces green beans, trimmed |
8 cups mixed salad greens, torn |
1 large ripe tomato, halved and thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Thinly slice half the onion; soak in cold water. Mince 1 tablespoon of the remaining onion half; process with the goat cheese, buttermilk, vinegar, olive oil, horseradish, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a blender until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon water if needed. 2. Put the potatoes in a pot of salted water; bring to a simmer and cook until tender, about 18 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Meanwhile, put the eggs in another pot of salted water; boil for 8 to 10 minutes, then remove to a bowl of cold water. Add the green beans to the same pot of boiling water; cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and pat dry. Peel and slice the eggs. 3. Drain the red onion slices. Toss in a bowl with the salad greens, green beans and half of the dressing. Top with the potatoes, tomato and hard-boiled egg slices. Drizzle with the remaining dressing. 4.
