Taste of Tuesday; Green Salad Goodness

Kale & Mixed Green Salad With Pear, Walnuts & Dried Cranberries

This past weekend at the "Mini-Me" BBQ I made this Kale & Mixed Green salad for the first time and it was a HUGE hit.  To be honest, I took ideas from a couple of different recipes I found on Pinterest and mixed them all together to create it; and Voila! 

Makes 6-8 servings

Ingredients:

• 2 cups kale
• 2 cups mixed green salad
• 1 medium pear, cored and chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
• 1/2 cup toasted chopped walnuts
• 1/3 cup dried cranberries
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1-2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1-2 tablespoons Ken's Restaurant Sweet Vidalia Onion dressing
• Goat cheese for topping (optional)

Directions:

Toss the kale with the mixed greens, pear, walnuts and cranberries. In a mason jar, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, sweet vidalia onion dressing, and pour over the salad. Toss to make sure everything is coated. Top each serving with a small amount of goat cheese, if desired.
