Beth is a neighbor and dear friend of mine.  She has prepared lunch for me almost every Friday since my husband died over five years ago.  We enjoy delicious food, accentuated with a bottle (or two!) of red wine.  I call her the “Salad Queen” because she makes the BEST salads.  This is one of my favorites.

Beth’s Blue Cheese, Apples and Walnut Salad

Salad

6 cups mixed salad greens

1 large apple, chopped (about 1 cup)

2 tablespoons chopped red onion

3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, toasted

Place all ingredients in a salad bowl.

 

Dressing

¼ cup olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Whisk all four ingredients together in a small bowl.  Pour over salad and toss to combine.
