Salads are the easiest meal for weeknight dinners, but I feel that I am constantly making some combination of grilled chicken + vegetables in my fridge + balsamic dressing.
It's fun to mix it up sometimes. This salad is a perfect way to give some spunk back into your salad.
One of my best friends, Allison, is getting married this weekend! Congratulations Allison and Chris! I am soo excited for you two!
Thought I'd add some of my favorite pics of Allison and I:)
Okay back to the food now, lol.
Sweet and Savory Salad
Serves 1
Mixings:
Honey Goat Cheese (a must in my fridge - best combo ever)
Walnuts toasted with some olive oil, salt, and pepper, over medium heat until golden brown
Dates chopped into bite size pieces
1/2 Green Apple chopped into bite size pieces
1/4 Red Onion sliced and sauteed in olive oil, salt, and pepper
Pita brushed with olive oil, salt, and pepper and toasted
Herb Salad Mix
Dressing:
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 tsp Honey
Juice from Lemon Juice
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
Salt
Pepper
Whisk your dressing ingredients. Toss the dressing and all the mixings together; well except for the pita of course. Then top your toasted pita with your salad and serve.
Have a great weekend!
What fun pictures and this dish looks so tasty...I am fan of pita bread and it is fun to have different ways to use it with food! Great salad idea! Congratulations to your friend too!
