Serves 4
I don’t know about you, but I have been loving all the fresh produce at the store. From fresh berries to tart apples and fresh peaches. I am also loving the fact that there are more choices when it comes to mixed greens. I love the baby kale mixes. This one was super fresh and triple washed. So it saves on time. I enjoy candied pecans in my salads, they add a nice crunch. This mixed green had baby beet greens. I love the color they add to a nice salad. You know by now I try to eat a salad a day. I really never get tired of salad. It is very forgiving. You can add anything you want to salad. Today I was inspired to add fresh garden basil, blueberries and strawberries. And topped with blue cheese and candied pecans. This was something you would see at a 5 star restaurant. It was amazing. The avocado was perfectly ripe, adding the perfect compliment. You will love this. It would be great served during the holidays. Keep this recipe in mind. I would love to know what you think, so please post your comments below. Bon Appétit, Cecelia
