the best way to toss your salad..

...is with your own 2 hands :) hehe


Quick post today.. just wanted to mention that BLUE CHEESE IS FREAKIN' DELICIOUS. I can't get enough of it. I've been making this salad for lunch recently and it is just sooooooo good. All the ingredients go so well together.. blue cheese + pear is such a wonderful flavor balance.

Vinaigrette: 1-2 tsp dijon mustard, juice of 1/2 lemon (this does make it super sour so go easy on this if you are not a fan of that), extra virgin olive oil, salt & pepper to taste. Whisk all these ingredients together on the bottom of your bowl.

Add your greens (I am a fan of the Fresh Express Butter Lettuce blend, esp. for convenience) thinly sliced onion, carrots, walnuts and crumbled blue cheese. Also thinly slice up a Bartlett pear, add it to the salad. Toss everything together with your hands, making sure the vinaigrette coats everything in the salad. Enjoy!
