Blue And Green Salad Recipes

GREEN SALAD WITH BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the cheese, mayonnaise, heavy cream, vinegar, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until smooth.
• Place a wedge of lettuce on each serving plate with 2 slices of tomato. Pour enough dressing over the lettuce to moisten. Serve immediately.

GREEN SALAD WITH BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

Steps:

• For the dressing, crumble half the Roquefort cheese, the mayonnaise, heavy cream, vinegar, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until combined but still chunky.
• Arrange the lettuce leaves on a platter and place the tomatoes on top. Pour the dressing over the tomatoes. Crumble the remaining Roquefort and sprinkle it over lettuce and tomatoes.

SWEET AND BITTER GREENS SALAD WITH GORGONZOLA BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

Steps:

• Combine the lettuce and walnuts. In a small bowl, whisk oil into vinegar. Stir in the cheese and pear slices. Toss salad and season with salt and pepper, to your taste.

SPRING GREEN SALAD WITH PARSLEY & BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Put the kettle on to boil. Tip the spring greens into a large heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water from the kettle, then leave to stand for 2 mins to soften slightly. Drain well, then tip onto a plate lined with kitchen paper. Spread the greens out in a single layer so the paper can absorb as much of the excess water as possible. Leave to cool for 2 mins.
• Meanwhile, toss the parsley, quinoa and red onions together. Mix in the spring greens, then scatter over the cheese and toss gently with your hands to combine.
• Whisk the lemon zest and juice, the mustard and rapeseed oil together in a jug to make a dressing. Pour this over the spring green salad and toss gently to combine. Tip the salad onto a large serving platter or spoon into individual bowls and scatter over the walnuts, if using. Serve immediately.

BALSAMIC BLEU CHEESE SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss together the mixed greens, leaf lettuce, cheese and walnuts. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and lemon juice. Pour over the salad mixture and toss well.

RED, WHITE, AND BLUE (BERRY) GREEN SALAD

Steps:

• Lay the greens on the plate.
• Pile the feta and walnuts in the middle of the greens.
• Scatter the strawberries and blueberries on top.
• Serve with the dressing on the side, and not until ready to eat (it wilts the salad).
• Enjoy!
