Mixed Greens with Strawberries, Extra-Sharp White Cheddar, and Candied Pecans with a Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette
I created this recipe for mixed greens, strawberries, extra-sharp white cheddar, and candied pecans with a strawberry balsamic vinaigrette to take to a friend’s house for dinner. I served the salad with a homemade strawberry balsamic vinaigrette, and it tasted fantastic with the barbecue chicken and potato salad my friend served.
