Winter Salad - Susan Panzica

Dressing:

1/3 cup lemon juice

2 teaspoons finely chopped onion (or dry minced onion)

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon salt

2/3 cup oil

1 tablespoon poppy seeds

Salad:

1 large head romaine lettuce, torn into bite size pieces (about 10 cups)

4 oz. (1 cup) shredded Swiss cheese

1 cup cashews (I use pecans or whatever)

1/4 cup sweetened dried cranberries

1 apple, cubed

1 pear, cubed

In blender container or food processor bowl with metal blade, combine sugar, lemon juice, onion, mustard, and salt. Cover; process until blended. With machine running, add oil in slow steady stream, processing until thick and smooth. Add poppy seeds; process a few seconds to mix.

In large serving bowl, combine salad ingredients; toss to mix. Pour dressing over salad; toss to coat.

Notes:

Swiss cheese can be omitted for non-cheese eaters.

In summer, I substitute strawberries, blueberries, mandarin oranges, mango, etc.

I usually pare the pear, skin can be bitter.
