  • 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 large garlic chopped roughly, clove
  • 1/3-1/2 cup olive oil

For the salad:

  • 5 oz lettuce I used a super greens blend, pre washed
  • 1 avocado diced, ripe
  • 4 large baby bella mushroom sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion finely diced
  • 1/3 cup candied walnuts plain walnuts are ok too!, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup gorgonzola cheese crumbled

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients for dressing into a high powered blender. Blitz until completely smooth. You may need to shake the blender a time or two to get things moving and drizzle in an extra tablespoon of olive oil. Once completely smooth, set aside.
  2. For the salad, add pre washed lettuce to a large bowl. Top with remaining ingredients and then drizzle generously with dressing. Serve immediately.
