Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette:
BLEU CHEESE CHOPPED SALAD
Serves 2
2/3 cup extra virgin olive Oil
1/4 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 cup rice vinegar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Cinnamon Pecans:
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon butter
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Dash salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Salad:
4 cups chopped iceberg lettuce
2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1/3 cup chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped red cabbage
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup crumbled bleu cheese

Steps:

  • Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette: Combine all ingredients except vinegar and lemon juice in a small pan over medium heat. Heat until mixture begins to bubble, remove from heat. Cool mixture. Combine cooled mixture with rice vinegar and lemon juice in a blender. Blend on high speed for 1 minute, cover and chill. Cinnamon Pecans: Combine sugar, water, butter, cinnamon and salt in a small pan over medium heat. When mixture first reaches a boil, add pecans. Stir constantly until liquid evaporates and sugar begins to crystallize on the nuts. Don't allow the nuts to smoke or burn. Pour sugar crystallized pecans out onto a plate to cool. Assemble The Salad: Combine lettuce, green onion, red cabbage, shredded carrot, pecans and pasta in a large bowl. Toss with 3/4 cup of the dressing. Top with 2 tablespoons crumbled bleu cheese on each serving.
