Oopsies

To be honest, I completely forgot about my weekly Friday recipe. I've had a headache all day, and LB has been the most active baby I've ever seen. So let me think a minute about what I've had to eat this week...... ummm...... despite the pile of leftovers in the fridge, I really can't think of anything to share. I guess that means I'll have to resort to a recipe I've done before and not one I've done recently.

Uhhh.... WHY am I having a hard time finding one to share?? Probably because food is the last thing I want to think about right now! I don't think I've shared this one, so here goes... and sorry if it's a repeat!

Larissa's Waldorf Salad (not tested by Hubby, since he dislikes salad dressing)

Ingredients:
1 head of Romaine lettuce
2 apples (any brand, but I find Braeburn works well)
2 celery stalks
1 generous handful of craisins (or grapes, if you don't like craisins)
2 handfuls of walnuts or pecans
Bleu cheese dressing

How To:

Well, it's pretty self-explanatory. Chop the lettuce, apples, and celery and toss. Sprinkle on the craisins and nuts. Drizzle the dressing on top, then toss the whole salad to coat.

*I used those roasted pecans that I posted a few weeks back, and they were delicious. It seemed contradictory to mix bleu cheese with cinnamon and nutmeg, but those nuts tasted amazing! It would also be a great main dish with some slices of roasted chicken, kind of like the one at California Pizza Kitchen.

Honey - best salad is greens/raddichio, gorgonzola, red onions, red grapes, & toasted pecans with the cinnamon sugar - and a balsamic dressing on top = DELISH!!! :)
