Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 4 cups mixed lettuce with radicchio
  • ½ cup green beens
  • 1 cup asparagus
  • 1 cup edamame
  • 2 beets roasted
  • 1 apple
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup cucumber
  • ½ cup white cheddar cheese

For the white balsamic Vinaigrette:

  • ⅓ cup White balsamic vinegar (alternatively you can use white wine vinegar, or champagne vinegar)
  • ½ shallot - finely diced
  • 2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 lemon - juiced
  • 2 tbsp tablespoon honey
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ⅓ cup olive oil

Instructions

  • PREPARE THE SALAD:
    1. Bring a pot of water to boil. Add green beans, shelled edamame beans, and the asparagus. Cook for about 5- 7 minutes. The vegetables should be still crunchy. Remove from the hot water and add to a bowl filled with cold water and ice. This will stop the cooking process. Drain the water after about 2 minutes.
    2. Half the cherry tomatoes, peel and cut the cucumber, apple, and the cheese into ½ inch (1 cm) cubes.
    3. Cut the asparagus and green beans into bite sized pieces.
    4. Peel and cut roasted beets into ½ to ¾ inch ( 1 to 2 cm) cubes.
    Assemble the mixed greens on a large platter. Add all other ingredients on top.
    PREPARE THE DRESSING:
    Finely dice half of a shallot. Add shallot to a bowl. Pour the vinegar, and juice of a lemon to the bowl. Then add salt, pepper, dijon mustard, and honey. Mix. While mixing, slowly add the olive oil and combine. Pour dressing over the salad. Enjoy!
