Strawberry and Brie Salad

Presented by Vintage Restaurant & Bar

INGREDIENTS

Salad (per serving):

• 2 handfuls arugula
• 1 1/2 T honey vinaigrette (see below)
• 2 oz. roasted sliced almonds
• 5 fresh strawberries, cut in quarters
• 5 large homemade brioche croutons
• 2 1/2 wedges brie
• Whole grain mustard for garnish

Honey vinaigrette (makes about 1 1/2 cups):

• 2 oz. honey
• 2 oz. white balsamic vinegar
• 8 oz. blended oil
• Pinch minced shallots
• Pinch dried thyme
• Pinch turmeric
• Salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

For the vinaigrette:
In a blender, add all the ingredients except the oil. Blend on high speed while slowly adding the oil in a thin, steady stream. Pour into a large, sealable jar. Leftover vinaigrette is great on a variety of salads and will keep refrigerated for well over a week.

For the salad:
Gently mix arugula, vinaigrette, almonds, strawberries and croutons and place on plate. Add brie next to salad and garnish sides of plate with dots of mustard. Serve at once.
