CL Comments: Use your favorite salad greens for this tasty first course. We liked the spiciness of arugula, but any other greens will
work.
Amy's Comments: This went with the maple balsamic pork tenderloin and corn custard. VERY flavorful and quite a nice presentation. I
just used regular spring mix greens. Anything with goat cheese is a winner with me! :D I did add a touch more dressing than called for
(i think I had more than the required lettuce)
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup Maple-Balsamic Dressing, divided
Cooking spray
8 cups loosely packed baby arugula, watercress, or spinach (about 4 ounces)
1/4 cup thinly vertically sliced red onion
2 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Combine the tomatoes and 2 tablespoons Maple-Balsamic Dressing; toss well to coat. Arrange tomatoes, cut sides up, on a jelly-roll pan
coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until tomatoes soften. Cool completely.
- Combine tomatoes, baby arugula, and onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons Maple-Balsamic Dressing; toss
gently to coat. Sprinkle evenly with cheese and pepper.
