Hurrah for the fruits of summer!! A perfect salad for a summer lunch orto serve as a side with something hot off the grill. It will also work with peaches or plums.
Ingredients:
- a few handfuls of lettuce or salad greens of your choice
- 4-6 fresh apricots, quartered (about 2-3 per person depending on size)
- feta cheese, crumbled, to taste
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, about a scant tbsp
- sea salt
- pepper
- a few sprigs of fresh tarragon, finely sliced
Directions:
- Wash the lettuce or salad greens well and then spin to dry.
- Whisk together all of the ingredients for the dressing in a small bowl. Or you can mix them together in a jar, seal and then shake well until everything is combined.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
- On two plates assemble the greens and top with the quartered apricots and crumbled feta.
- Drizzle with dressing.
Serves: 2
