This recipe is for a super salad. The fresh puree in the dressing makes it divine. The balance of sweet strawberries and somewhat tart blue cheese makes every morsel flavorful. Fun to serve anytime. It was quickly eaten in our home. It comes from the Wisconsin Milk Board. Great for any day. If you don't like baby greens sub in romaine. or butter lettuce. Enjoy! ChefDLH
