Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 16

WALNUTS
1 Tbsp sugar
3 Tbsp walnuts, coarsely chopped
cooking spray
DRESSING
1/2 c apple cider
3 Tbsp water
1/4 tsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp shallots, finely chopped
1 Tbsp champagne vinegar
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
SALAD
8 c herb salad mix
2 c berries or pitted cherries
1/4 c blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • 1. To prepare nuts, place sugar in a small skillet over medium heat; cook 90 seconds or until sugar dissolves, stirring as needed so sugar dissolves evenly and doesn't burn. Reduce heat; stir in walnuts. Cook over low heat 30 seconds or until golden. Spread mixture onto foil coated with cooking spray. Cool completely; break into small pieces.
  • 2. To prepare dressing, place cider in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons (about 5 minutes). Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl; add to pan. Bring cider mixture to a boil, stirring constantly; cook 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Stir in shallots, vinegar, salt, and pepper; let cool.
  • 3. To prepare salad, place salad mix in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing; toss gently to coat. Divide evenly among 4 plates; top with berries, cheese, and walnuts. Serve immediately.
