I’ve finally developed a go-to recipe that I often serve with dinner. I find a refreshing salad is a great compliment to any meal at any time of the year. I make sure to always have lettuce in our refrigerator as well as the rest of the ingredients I use in this recipe. I’ve added these ingredients to my Pantry Staples list, which makes this an easy convenient meal to whip up any day of the week. It’s one salad my husband and I never get tired of and offers a unique salad option to guests if you’re expecting company. Hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:
Salad:
Lettuce (Romaine, Mesclun mix, or your choice)
1 cup Chopped Walnuts
1/2 cup Dried Cherries
1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (preferably shredded)
Dressing:
3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup vinegar (red wine or balsamic)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 clove minced garlic (optional)
Rinse lettuce and cut into bite sized pieces. Chop about 1 cup of walnuts. Put lettuce, walnuts, 1/2 cup cherries, 1/2 cup parmesan cheese into a salad bowl. Sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Drizzle olive oil and vinegar to taste. Toss and serve immediately.
If you’d like to make a dressing to keep for the week, put 1/4 balsamic vinegar, 3/4 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic in a container and shake. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
