Strawberry Walnut Salad

Each week I will try to post a new recipe to share.  Tonight I made a beautiful salad to go with our grilled mini hamburger sliders, grilled corn on the cob and pineapple.  This is a very simple and easy recipe.  Hope you enjoy this salad.

Strawberry Walnut Salad
Red Leaf or Romaine Lettuce
Strawberries
Sugar
Margarine
Chopped Walnuts
Mayonnaise
White Vinegar
Milk
Feta Cheese
Blue Cheese


Shred the lettuce

Slice Strawberries (1cup)

Walnuts:
In a non-stick pan, melt 1/2 cup white sugar and 4 tablespoons of butter.  Add in 1 cup of chopped walnuts and cook for 10 minutes.  Make sure that the nuts are well coated.  Put the cooked walnuts on wax paper to cool.  Once they are cool, simply break apart.

Dressing:
1 cup of mayonnaise
4 tablespoons of white vinegar
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
Whisk all together, then chill

Lastly, add the sliced strawberries, a handful of both feta and blue cheeses, walnuts, and toss.  Then you can drizzle the dressing on top and serve.

Enjoy
