Description

Great salad you can serve on the side of a main dish or add roasted chicken and have as a meal! Chopped Belgian endive and radicchio can be substituted for the baby greens if you prefer a flavorful twist on salad recipes.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon stone-ground mustard
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 apple, diced
1 pear, diced
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 (10 ounce) package mixed baby greens
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts

Directions

1 Whisk the mustard and vinegar together in a small bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil while whisking to create a dressing; set aside.
2 Place the apple, pear, cranberries, baby greens, blue cheese, and walnuts into a large salad bowl. Toss gently to mix, then pour on the dressing, and toss to coat.
