Equipment (affiliate links)

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 10 cups mixed greens lettuce (red lettuce, romaine, spinach, or whatever you like)
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup red onion diced
  • 1 sweet apple chopped
  • 1 cup candied pecans
  • 1/3 cup feta cheese crumbles
  • 5.3 ounces container strawberry yogurt
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 small piece red onion
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon poppy seeds

Instructions

  • Add all of the dressing ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. 
  • Taste. Add additional vinegar if you want it tangier, more sugar if you like it sweeter, or a dab more mayo and splash of milk if you want it creamier. 
  • Stir in poppy seeds. Store dressing in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
  • Make candied pecans
  • Prepare, wash and dry berries, and chop the apple and onion. Add greens to a large mixing bowl. Add toppings (I like to set aside a spoonful of each topping to add at the end, for aesthetics.) 
  • Toss the mixture in desired amount of dressing. Serve immediately.  

Notes

Use ½ cup chopped raw pecans, 10 ½ cups mixed greens lettuce, Olive oil mayonnaise, Add 2 lbs raw boneless skinless chicken breasts.
