avocado, cucumber, ricotta salata + walnut vinaigrette
Rinse the Little Gem lettuce under cold water, then dry thoroughly. Cut each head in half lengthwise and place them on a serving platter.
Thinly slice the cucumber and avocado. Arrange the slices on top of the lettuce.
Crumble the ricotta salata over the salad.
In a blender, combine walnuts, olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Drizzle the walnut vinaigrette over the salad just before serving.
