Spring Green and Goat Cheese Salad
Spring Greens
Baby tomatoes, halved
Dried apricots, sliced
Pecan halves
Crumbled Goat Cheese
Sliced apples (optional, but if I decide to add apples to the salad, it's always Honeycrisp)
Toss all the salad ingredients together. Drizzle Champagne vinaigrette over salad and serve.
Champagne Vinaigrette
(Souce: The Neely's)
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
1/4 cup champagne vinegar (I usually substitute with
white balsamic vinegar)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey
2 or 3 dashes hot sauce (I usually omit the hot sauce)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Whisk together the garlic, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice,
honey, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive
oil until the dressing is emulsified. Alternatively, you can combine all the
ingredients in a blender or a food processor and puré until smooth.
