Just Like Dewey's Candied Walnut and Grape Salad image

Perfect for special occasions, but simple enough to make every night. Has a lovely citrus basil vinaigrette that goes well with this salad as well as others. Taste's just like the salad they serve at Dewey's Pizza in Cincinnati, Ohio.

5 cups baby romaine leaves or 5 cups mesclun
1/2 cup red seedless grapes, halved
3 1/2 ounces quality gorgonzola, crumbled
1/2 cup candied walnuts or 1/2 cup candied pecans, halves (may purchase or make Candied Walnuts)
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon aged balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh basil, minced
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place baby romaine leaves in a salad bowl and top with sliced grapes, candied nuts and crumbled gorgonzola (if making your own candied nuts do this step first so they have a moment to cool).

  • Serve dressing with salad.
