Baby Romaine Salad with Date Vinaigrette submitted by Mom Johnson |
|
|
Description
This salad goes well with a spicy BBQ'd meat - it offsets the spiciness.
|
Directions
To make the vinaigrette, place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Set aside.
To make the salad:
Trim the ends of the oranges all the way to juicy flesh. Stand one orange upright and remove the peel and pith with a paring knife. Cut the sections and place in a bowl.
Toss fennel with 3 T. of the vinaigrette in a large bowl until well-coated. Add the radishes and orange segments and toss gently. Add romaine leaves and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds.
Serves 4-6.
