I chose to post the following recipe for two reasons:
1. I finally figured out the dressing, and 2. It's getting hot outside, and there's nothing like a refreshing salad to cool you down!
I always love a good cobb salad, and this is kind of a variation. It incorporates fall-like ingredients with spring greens. This is one of my favorite salads, introduced to me by DJ's Restaurant and Lounge in Winslow. The main ingredients are the same, but since Chef Georgie won't share his secret vinaigrette recipe (wink wink), I came up with this one, that is pretty darn good.
Nutty Bleu Apple Salad (aka Harvest Salad aka DJ's Restaurant)
Salad:
Fresh spring greens
Granny Smith apple slices
Bleu cheese crumbles
Craisins (or other small dried fruit)
Pecans (DJ's uses glazed walnuts, but I really like the taste of pecans and apples together)
Apple Cider Vinaigrette:
2 c. Apple Cider
1/4 c. Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 c. honey
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 c. salad oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine first 4 ingredients, then drizzle in oil. Store in a shakeable container in the fridge.
