quick fix |  Mixed Greens with Strawberries, Pine Nuts + Balsamic Vinaigrette

I am a big, big fan of fruit on salads. Sweet strawberries balance the pleasant bitterness of mixed greens and the acidity of balsamic vinaigrette ... as good to eat as it is pretty to look at. 


ingredients

1 package ready-to-eat mixed greens of your choice
4 ripe strawberries
3 tbsp. pine nuts

for the balsamic vinaigrette:
2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. cider vinegar
1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tbsp. minced shallot
1 tsp. honey
salt + pepper to taste
1/2 cup olive oil

serves

time 
10 minutes


1. Mix all the ingredients for the vinaigrette, except the olive oil. Gradually add in the olive oil while you continue to beat the mixture with a fork or whisk. Mix until the oil and vinegar are well-incorporated. 
2. Arrange the greens, strawberries and pine nuts on two plates. Serve with the dressing.
