Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Pecans

    In a skillet over medium heat, toast the pecans for about 3-5 minutes until fragrant. Add 2 tablespoons of sugar and a pinch of salt, stirring constantly until the sugar melts and coats the pecans. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the spring mix, sliced Granny Smith apple, halved grape tomatoes, and caramelized pecans. Drizzle the garlic cilantro vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Finish with Goat Cheese

    Crumble the goat cheese over the top of the salad and serve immediately.
