Emily’s Favorite Salad

Posted in September 25, 2009 ¬ 9:28 pmh.EmilyNo Comments »

I always get compliments on this salad–even from people who don’t really like salad!

  • romaine lettuce
  • spinach
  • green onions, diced
  • cilantro, coarsely chopped
  • fresh or canned pears, sliced or diced into large chunks
  • dried cranberries
  • pecans (almonds are good too), raw or toasted lightly in the oven for a few minutes

Top with Newman’s Own Light Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette. I’ve made it without the green onions and cilantro, but they really add a kick that I miss if they’re not in the salad. Something about the sweet and savory, and then the toasted pecans in there… Yum.

It’s also really good with feta.
