Blue Cheese-Pecan-Avocado Salad With Honey Mustard Vinaigrette image

This is one of my favorite salads to throw together. The dressing can be used on almost any salad. I never measure when I'm making salad dressings, so the amounts are approximate.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (6 ounce) bag butter lettuce (I like the kind with radicchio in it for color)

1 avocado, diced
1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey (scant)
black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Dressing: Whisk together garlic, mustard, honey, and pepper.
  • Whisk in vinegar and then oil.
  • Taste and add more mustard, honey, or other ingredients if necessary to your liking. Set aside.
  • In a salad bowl, combine lettuce, pecans, blue cheese, and avocado.
  • Add dressing and toss to combine.
