Plain old salads get so boring! This salad is anything but boring.
Try serving these Mixed Greens and Goat Cheese with Raspberry Vinaigrette for your next dinner side salad. Everyone will be so pleasantly surprised to try something new!
How to toast pine nuts:
To quickly toast the pine nuts, just put them in a small fry pan over medium heat. Watch them closely, and use a wooden spoon to move them around until they are lightly toasted. Be careful- they’ll burn if you don’t tend to them! Pour them onto a paper towel to cool before adding them to your salad. I like to buy pine nuts at Costco. They’re less expensive there, and you can keep the big bag in the freezer and use them as needed.

BLT Chopped Salad, Pizza Pasta Salad, and Kale Power Salad are excellent salads too!
