Mixed Greens and Blueberry Salad with a Lemon Honey Vinaigrette

People…. this here salad is beyond words! I taught it in my last cooking class and everyone in the last class can’t stop telling me just how much they love it and constantly make it. It is light, refreshing and goes with everything! I served it alongside home made pasta and it was a match made in heaven. Beautiful… tasty… perfect.

It’s too good not to share with you all and with summer coming…. a phenomenal salad is just what our taste buds and bodies are asking for! Am I right or am I right? Don’t file this to make later…. run to the store, get the ingredients and make it now. You’ll be thanking me later!
