SALAD:
- 16 ounces mixed greens

- 1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 4 whole green onions, chopped
- ⅓ cup chopped, oil-packed sundried tomatoes (drained)
- ⅓ cup golden raisins
- 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese
- ⅓ cup pine nuts, toasted (see notes below)
DRESSING:
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon seedless raspberry or strawberry jam
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Place greens in a large bowl. Add all other ingredients.
- To prepare the dressing, add all dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk until well combined. Pour over the salad and toss (maybe use a little at a time until you have a desired amount of dressing). Serve immediately.
Notes
- If you are preparing this recipe as gluten-free, just be sure to use brands of Dijon and jam that are known to be GF.
- To toast the pine nuts, heat a skillet to medium. Add the pine nuts to the pan and stir often until they begin to turn golden. Remove the pine nuts to a bowl or a paper towel to cool.
