Since I am taking a look at healthy foods that are also delicious, I figured I should include a salad. This is my own personal twist on a classic recipe, and it is the only thing I know how to make by heart (besides toast). In my opinion, everyone needs one dish that they can make well; just to have the appearance of a world renowned chef. This is mine and it does the trick every time. Be careful though, this salad is made best with full fat and full calories, and it is easy to get carried away with the portions. This is a great salad for a summer lunch or if you just want to impress you future baby mama/ baby daddy.
Salad:
Romaine or mixed green lettuce (either one will work)
½ cup dried cranberries
1 Apple (cubed)
½ cup plain goat cheese
½ cup crushed walnuts
1 tomato diced
4 strips extra crispy bacon crushed (If you’re feelin frisky)
If you’re looking to make this more a meal, just add grilled, boneless skinless chicken breast.
Lettuce first then add all other ingredients on top for presentation.
Vinaigrette:
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup maple syrup
¼ cup Dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Combine in blender or combine all ingredients together in air tight container and shake vigorously for 1 min.
