Simple Summer Salad

A simple salad to me can be one of the most interesting and refreshing elements to any meal. This simple summer salad is easy to make and easy to eat!

Summer Grape salad w/ Sherry Vinagrette

Sherry Vinagrette

1.5 Tbspn Dijon Mustard

4 Tbspn Sherry Vinegar

1 Tbspn Local Honey*

1/4 cup Olive oil

1 Lemon

Fresh Cracked Pepper to taste

Combine the first 3 ingredients into a mixing bowl and whisk together until well blended. Then slowly drizzle the Olive oil into the bowl while whisking or you can cheat and use an immersion blender with a whisk attachment. Once blended give the dressing a fresh squeeze of lemon and some fresh pepper to taste. You can make this dressing ahead of time and refrigerate until your salad is ready to eat.

Salad

1 cup of red seedless grapes (halved)

1/2 Cucumber (sliced)

Spring Mix of greens

Parmesan cheese as desired

For the Spring mix of greens you should be able to get these fresh at your local grocer right now; greens like Baby Lettuces, Baby Greens, Endive and Radicchio, if not take the easy route and buy a bag salad. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and dress with the Sherry vinaigrette and toss before serving.

Let me know how it goes.
