Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large head romaine lettuce
2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 small shallot (I didn't use this in the recipe)

Steps:

  • Wash and dry romaine and tear into bite-sized pieces.
  • Use a mini food processor/blender to puree feta, vinegar, olive oil, honey & shallot (if using).
  • Toss romaine with dressing and add your washed and dried blueberries and toss again -- gently.
  • Apparently you can make the dressing up to two days in advance, but we made it and ate it right way. We had some leftovers for a small snack in the evening.
  • This would also be good with some toasted almonds sprinkled in, but more calories then!

Deliciously Sweet Salad with Maple, Nuts, Seeds, Blueberries, and Goat Cheese image

My mom began making this salad a few years ago and, as soon as I tried it, I just had to get the recipe. This is my version, but can be varied in many different ways because it's all about the dressing! So simple, yet so delicious that you are sure to get requests for the recipe whenever you make it! You can use pecans, almonds, or pine nuts in place of the walnuts.
