My
friend Brenda and I went to Moxie’s the other night for dinner. She hasn’t been
home for a visit in a long time so we were out catching up!
I
had this Santorini Salad for dinner, it was so amazing I knew I needed to try
and recreate it at home.
It
has salty olives, soft cheese, crunchy croutons and a light slightly sweet but
tart dressing.
What
you need,
4
cups mixed baby greens
½
cup sliced cucumber
½
cup grape tomatoes
¼
cup mixed, pitted olives
¼
cup baby mozza cheese (bocchini)
2
tbsp. crumbled feta cheese
½
cup multi grain croutons
For
the dressing,
4
tbsp. red wine vinegar
3
tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
2
tbsp. canola oil
1
tbsp. honey
1
tsp. salt
½
tsp. pepper
In
a small jar combine the red wine vinegar, both oils, honey, salt and pepper.
Shake well to combine, about 30 seconds.
Set
aside.
In
a large bowl combine the baby greens, cucumber, tomatoes, olives, baby mozza,
feta cheese and croutons.
Drizzle
on 3-4 tablespoons of the dressing and toss to coat.
Serve
right away.
This
salad is absolutely delicious. It has so many flavours and textures.
It made a
perfect summer dinner!
