For our recent monthly Diners' Club gathering, my assignment was the salad course (to accompany the hostess' Chicken Parmesan). I thought, hmmm, something sweet to balance the salt of the main course, so I just threw together a few of my favorite things, and WOW. For the dressing, I used a blend of two commercial dressings-Brianna's American Classic + Creamy Balsamic . For the caramelized pecans, do a search on this site-many good recipes. Ingredients:
12 ounces mixed baby greens |
12 ounces baby spinach leaves |
4 ounces goat cheese |
2 cups strawberries, sliced |
1 cup pecans, caramelized (with an added pinch of cayenne pepper) |
2 small cucumbers, sliced thin (english seedless variety) |
1/2 red onion, sliced thin |
Directions:
1. Wash and spin greens, chill until crisped.
2. Put goat cheese in freezer to firm for about 20 minutes, then pinch into 1/2 blobs .
3. Toss everything together, then add favorite vinaigrette!
