Name: Blue Cheese and Dried Cranberry Tossed Salad

Ingredients:

• 4 hearts of romaine lettuce, chopped
• 1/2 English cucumber, sliced
• 3/4 cup grape tomatoes, halved
• 1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
• 3/4 cup balsamic vinaigrette

Instructions:

• Layer the romaine lettuce with the cucumber, grape tomatoes, pecans, cranberries, and blue cheese in a large salad bowl.
• Dress the salad with the balsamic vinaigrette before serving.

Comments: 4/21/2016 - I skipped the vinaigrette; we each put on our own dressing.
11/3/2018 - I adjusted the levels to work for the two of us, and I substituted raisins for dried cranberries.
12/14/2019 - I used less lettuce, but the same amount of the other ingredients. We got maybe 3 servings. Gail liked it.
4/18/2022 - I used only 4 leaves of Romaine and I forgot to add the blue cheese! I did use 1/4 cup of craisins, 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts, 1/3 regular cucumber, and 1/2 medium tomato. We ate it in one meal.
4/20/2022 - This time I remembered to include the blue cheese.
