I haven't tried this yet, but I can't wait! I don't like blue cheese, so I'll probably substitute goat cheese. Enjoy!
With walnuts, honey and a dose of blue cheese, this house salad is satisfying enough to serve as a main course. Protein deprived? Chop up a boneless chicken breast or toss in a serving of grilled shrimp to complete your meal.
Serves 2
INGREDIENTS
â?¢ Salad
â?¢ 1/2 cup walnuts
â?¢ 1 tablespoon honey
â?¢ 1 Anjou pear
â?¢ 4 cups mixed baby lettuce
â?¢ 1/4 cup blue cheese
â?¢ Dressing
â?¢ 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
â?¢ 1/4 cup olive oil
â?¢ 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
â?¢ 1 teaspoon honey
â?¢ 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
â?¢ 1/8 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (Thai hot sauce)
â?¢ Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
â?¢
PREPARATION
Heat oven to 350°. Mix walnuts and honey in a shallow baking dish. Bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Remove; set aside. Cut pear into thin slices. Combine nuts, pear, lettuce and cheese in a bowl. Whisk dressing ingredients in another bowl. Divide salad between 2 serving bowls; drizzle each with 2 tbsp of the dressing.
