Arugula Pear Salad
Our Arugula Pear Salad is an elegant option as a first course, but complex enough in flavor and texture to serve as a beautiful entrée salad. Peppery arugula, sweet thinly sliced pears, toasted walnuts, and tangy blue cheese, combine to make the most delightful salad for your holiday table. Drizzled with the most amazing salad dressing, each ingredient complements the other to produce a light and fresh appetizer salad. A great start for a special meal any time of year, this delicious salad takes only minutes to prepare and will impress your guests every time.
Fresh Citrus Salad
Two types of greens, a few sweet and salty ingredients, and a beautiful citrus dressing, make this Fresh Citrus Salad a delight to serve and enjoy! This salad has a lovely balance of crunchy texture and sweet and salty flavor, with ingredients like peppery arugula, crisp spinach, caramelized shallots, honey roasted almonds, and our beautiful clementine based Citrus Vinaigrette (recipe coming soon). Crumbled feta cheese gives it a deliciously salty and creamy finish. It’s a great salad to make when you are entertaining!
