This is my favorite salad right now. I usually leave out the cheese. I use a little more vinegar in my dressing because I like it more acidic.


Orchard Salad

Ingredients

1 head red leaf lettuce
1 head green leaf lettuce
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 crisp red apples, thinly sliced
1 anjou pears, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons apple cider
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt
coarse black pepper
8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, thinly sliced

Directions

1. Coarsely chop lettuce.
2. Squeeze a little lemon juice over apples and pears and toss with greens.
3. Combine cider, vinegar and sugar in a bowl and whisk in oil in a slow stream.
4. Pour dressing over salad, season with salt and pepper, toss to combine and coat evenly.
5. Serve salad with a garnish of sliced sharp cheddar cheese.
