10 Minute Cranberry-Almond Salad With Goat Cheese and Raspberry Vinaigrette
Ready in just 10 minutes, this gorgeous Cranberry-Almond Salad has many delicious and bright flavors, like spring salad greens, sweet cranberries, crunchy almonds and tangy goat cheese drizzled with a delicious homemade raspberry vinaigrette.
Make the raspberry vinaigrette by combining the dressing ingredients inside a glass jar with a lid, shake well until the jam has dissolved. Season with salt and pepper, to taste and shake again.
Add the salad greens to a large bowl. Toss with dried cranberries, almond slices, and goat cheese.
Give the dressing one more good shake and drizzle over the salad. Serve immediately.
Notes
I like to take the goat cheese out of the refrigerator about 30-minutes prior so that it softens and the flavors bloom. It's not necessary, but I recommend it.Prepare this salad ahead of time! Cover salad with plastic wrap and store dressing in the refrigerator until needed. If the dressing solidifies, remove the lid and microwave for 5 to10 seconds on high or until loose. Shake well, then toss immediately before serving salad.
