Ingredients

2 tablespoons aged sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely diced shallot
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon California clover honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup California extra-virgin oil
1 pound fresh lamb sausages, such as Northern California lamb sausages
Canola oil, for brushing
4 medium heirloom tomatoes, cut into wedges
1/2 cup assorted black olives, pitted and halved
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup whole toasted pistachios, chopped
8 ounces California soft goat cheese, cut into pieces
6 ounces baby mixed organic greens
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

For the vinaigrette: Whisk the vinegar, lemon juice, shallots, mustard and honey in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Slowly stir in the olive oil. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
For the salad: Heat the grill for direct grilling. Brush the sausages with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Toss the tomatoes, olives, parsley, pistachios, cheese, greens, onions, basil and tarragon. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and some of the vinaigrette. Serve with the sausages.

HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALAD WITH CRUMBLED GOAT CHEESE

Heirloom Tomato Salad with Crumbled Goat Cheese image

Either way, now is when I look for ways to make our heirloom tomatoes the star of any dish I use them in. That's the case with this dish. The tomatoes were firm and sweet, with just the hint of acidity from the lemon juice, countered by the tang of onion and the creaminess of the dressing and goat cheese crumbles. Nancy and I both went back for seconds and she finished off the leftovers the next day before I could even get home!
