Ingredients
for the salad:
- 2 mixed salad greens I used lamb's lettuce, handfuls
- 1 pear large, ripe
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries 30g
- 1/3 cup walnuts 35g
- 2 oz goat cheese semi-firm, 60g, 4 slices
for the lemon dijon vinaigrette:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Wash the lettuce and spin it dry. Put on a large plate.
- Peel the pear (you can also leave the skin on if you'd like), cut into 4 parts, cut out the core, then cut each part into thin slices. Arrange the pear slices on top of the salad greens.
- Toast the walnuts on a dry pan until they are browned and fragrant. Take off the pan immediately as they can burn quickly.
- Cut the cheese into small cubes.
- Arrange the cranberries, walnuts, and cheese on top of the salad.
- Make the dressing: add all the ingredients into a small jar, close the lid and shake until well combined. You can also whiz all ingredients in a food processor. Season with salt and pepper, adjust to your taste by adding more lemon juice, mustard, or honey.
- Drizzle the salad with the dressing and serve.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure to dry your lettuce well or the salad will be too watery after you add the dressing.
- See blog post for many substitution suggestions.
