Raspberries add bright color and several good-for-you nutrients like fiber, antioxidants, and vitamin C. Almonds are a good source of vitamin E and monounsaturated fats. Chives, members of the onion family, add phenols and flavonoids. Ingredients:
5 cups gourmet salad greens |
1 3/4 cups raspberries (about 1 container) |
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives |
3 tablespoons champagne or white wine vinegar |
2 teaspoons honey |
1/2 teaspoon country-style dijon mustard |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
6 tablespoons sweet spiced almonds |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine vinegar and next 4 ingredients (through pepper) in a small bowl. Gradually add oil, stirring with a whisk. Drizzle vinegar mixture over lettuce mixture; toss gently to coat. Arrange 1 cup salad on each of 6 plates; top each serving with 1 tablespoon Sweet Spiced Almonds. |
