This is a simple tossed salad, and I love the fact that the vinaigrette is oil-free. The dressing has a bit of a tang to it, but it is well-balanced by the sweetness of the fruit. I used Golden Delicious apples since they don't turn brown when cut, and romaine lettuce for the greens. I think the greens should be something sturdy to hold up to the apples and pineapple. Spinach would also be great. This recipe comes from Del Monte. Ingredients:
2 apples, cored and thinly sliced |
1 1/2 cups pineapple, cubed |
1 red onions or 1 other sweet onion, thinly sliced |
3 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled |
6 cups salad greens |
3 tablespoons water |
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons sweet-hot mustard |
1 clove garlic, minced finely or 1 clove garlic powder |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Whisk together water, vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine greens, apples, pineapple, onion, and cheese.
3. Pour dressing over the fruit and vegetables and toss gently to coat.
4. Serve immediately.
