Directions
-
Make the Salad Dressing by adding the first 6 ingredient to a blender. Turn the blender on and very slowly add the olive oil while the machine is running. Alternatively, you can combine the ingredients together in a small container with a tight fitting lid, and shake well before applying. Set aside or store in the refrigerator for 1 week.
-
In a large bowl, add the salad ingredients together except the blue cheese. Toss well. Add blue cheese and Sweet Italian Salad Dressing. Toss just until blue cheese is evenly distributed through the salad and the salad is well coated with the dressing. Taste and add more dressing as needed.
