SPINACH SALAD WITH CARAMELIZED PECANS
Caramelized pecans make this salad especially good. This is a salad they used to serve at the restaurant one of my son's worked at, Rockbottom Brewery. If you want a salad with a bit more punch, try blue cheese instead of the feta.

Spread evenly onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring a few times to break up nuts, for 15 min. or until lightly browned. Place pear slices on another baking sheet and dress with 1/2 tsp (2 mL) of olive oil and ground pepper. Roast in the oven, at the same time as the nuts, for 12 to 15 min. When cool enough to handle, separate nuts into pieces and cut 15 of the pear slices into 1/2-in. (1 cm) pieces. Set aside the remaining pear slice.
- In a small blender, combine the remaining 1/3 cup (75 mL) of olive oil and mustard. Pour in cider vinegar with motor running until combined. Add the whole pear slice and remaining salt and sugar, and blend.
- In a large bowl, toss the spinach and dressing. Adjust seasoning, if necessary. Add pear cubes and 1/3 cup (75 mL) candied pecans (save the rest for another use) and toss gently before serving.

- Spread pecans out on a sheet pan and toast for 15 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through roasting.
- While pecans roast, make vinaigrette by combining shallot, vinegar, mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Add olive oil while whisking until the vinaigrette is smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. (Note: Alternatively, for a very smooth vinaigrette, you can combine all vinaigrette ingredients and blend them with an immersion blender. This is my preferred method.)
- Just before serving, combine roasted pecans, baby kale, brie, cranberries, and apples in a large salad bowl. Add vinaigrette until salad is dressed to your liking. Toss well.
