Greek Cranberry Salad

"This recipe came from my mother. It is easy to make and looks/tastes incredible. You can use any kind of salad greens that you like, and you can substitute blue cheese for the feta if you prefer. I thought I would never have a recipe to share, since I get most of my new recipes from Zaar!"

directions

  • Make the sugared nuts. In a skillet, cook and stir the pecans in the butter until toasted - about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of sugar. Set aside to cool.
  • Prepare the dressing. Pour the red wine vinegar, vegetable oil, parsley, garlic powder, 1 T of sugar, oregano, salt and pepper into a blender. Blend well until the ingredients are combined and the parsely is well processed.
  • Toss the greens, sugared nuts, cranberries, onions, and cheese with the dressing. The dressing is pretty powerful, so use sparingly and adjust to taste. I found the proportions as listed to be just about right for our taste, but you may prefer less dressing.
  • Serve immediately.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a small business owner who lives in the suburbs of Atlanta. My husband and I have one daughter, born in 2006. What a wonderful blessing she is! My work is in information technology consulting, so trying new recipes is one of my favorite hobbies and a great outlet for stress. I don't consider myself to be a great cook, but I do love food and I'm getting better and better at getting great results with the recipes I try.
