With its pretty presentation and tangy taste, it's easy to see why this delightful salad is always a hit with Pat Schmeling's family in Germantown, Wisconsin. âAt holidays, I ask each of my family members for their favorite food,â Pat explains. âThis salad is always requested by my daughter.â Ingredients:
1/3 cup white wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
3/4 teaspoon dill weed |
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
3/4 cup olive oil |
4 large red delicious apples, thinly sliced |
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese |
1/3 cup walnut halves |
9 cups torn romaine |
3 cups chopped watercress (about 1-1/2 bunches) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk the first six ingredients; gradually whisk in oil until blended. In a large bowl, combine the apples, cheese, walnuts and 3 tablespoons dressing; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing.
2. Just before serving, combine romaine and watercress in a large bowl; drizzle with reserved dressing and toss to coat. Divide among 12 salad plates; top with apple mixture. Yield: 12 servings.
