Mixed Greens Salad with Blueberry Vinaigrette
Adapted from recipetips.comServes 4
This quick and easy salad, as pretty as it is tasty, provides a variety of flavors without overwhelming the delicate flavor of blueberries. Yogurt is not a traditional ingredient of a vinaigrette but here is the key to bringing out the luscious color of the berries.
2 quarts mixed salad greens
1/4 cup fresh lime or lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey or sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh blueberries, divided
1/4 cup plain yogurt
2 tablespoons olive or canola oil
A few grinds of pepper
Clean the greens and spin or blot dry.
Mix together lime or lemon juice, honey and salt. Mash 1/2 cup blueberries into the juice and honey mixture. Stir in yogurt, pepper and oil. Taste for seasoning.
Dress salad just before serving: divide greens onto 4 large salad plates, spoon dressing over and scatter reserved blueberries on top.
