A Fall Salad

Here it is....one of my favorite salads....crunchy pecans, creamy goat cheese, tart dressing...and so delicious!

Maple Dressing

1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 T sour cream
2 T white wine vinegar
1 t horseradish (prepared in a jar)
1/3 cup olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste

In a medium bowl, combine maple syrup, sour cream, vinegar and horseradish. Slowly whisk in olive oil until emulsified (or whisked together well!) Season with plenty of salt...and pepper.

greens (of your choice)
goat cheese, crumbled
bacon, sliced thin (pre-cooked bacon is available in many markets)
chives or scallions, sliced thin
pecans (sweet and spicy at trader joe's)

on your plate, place the greens in a mound, crumble goat cheese with a fork to your desire, top with bacon, chives and pecans. Drizzle with maple dressing and serve immediately.

make it and let me know what you think!

eat up,
d
