Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb (about 7 cups) watercress and shoots ( corn , beet, etc.), rinsed and spun dry
1/4 cup flax seeds, lightly toasted
2 small spring onions, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup blackberries or red raspberries
1/4 cup white raspberries
4 oz oka cheese, thinly sliced
8 slices french bread, about 1/4-inch thick
1/4 cup flax seed oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large salad bowl, combine the greens, seeds, onions, and berries.
Place the sliced bread on a baking sheet and lightly toast until golden on 1 side, about 6 minutes. Turn the slices and place the cheese on the soft sides. Return to the oven and toast until the cheese is melted and just bubbling, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Toss the salad with the dressing and divide among 4 salad plates. Place 2 cheese croutons on each plate, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and serve immediately.
