Baby Greens Salad With Strawberries and Blue Cheese image

This recipe is for a super salad. The fresh puree in the dressing makes it divine. The balance of sweet strawberries and somewhat tart blue cheese makes every morsel flavorful. Fun to serve anytime. It was quickly eaten in our home. It comes from the Wisconsin Milk Board. Great for any day. If you don't like baby greens sub in romaine. or butter lettuce. Enjoy! ChefDLH

Overall, this salad is a good starting point. With a few tweaks, it could be really great.

This salad was a bit bland. I think I'll add some more herbs or spices next time.

The blue cheese was a bit too strong for me. Next time I'll use a milder cheese.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with a different dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of strawberries in salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The sweetness of the strawberries really balanced out the bitterness of the blue cheese.

I used a balsamic vinaigrette dressing instead of the honey mustard dressing. It was a nice change of pace.

I added some grilled chicken to this salad for a more substantial meal. It was delicious!

This salad is so easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use whatever baby greens I have on hand.

I'm not usually a fan of blue cheese, but it worked really well in this salad. The sweetness of the strawberries and the bitterness of the blue cheese complemented each other perfectly.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of sweet strawberries, tangy blue cheese, and peppery baby greens was a perfect balance of flavors. I also loved the crunch of the walnuts. Will definitely be making this again!
