ARUGULA SALAD WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, GOAT CHEESE AND CANDIED W
This is a very pretty salad, and full of flavor! It may look like a lot of work, but with salads,usually what you see before you are bags and bags of produce! But you can make it in no time flat! The candied walnuts are out of this world, the goat cheese, soft and creamy, with the onions, and the tang from the vinegars, it's a real winner! This serves 10, but you can certainly cut it in half or less. Source: Bon Apetit'

BUTTER BEANS, GOAT CHEESE, AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS ARUGULA SALAD
Inspired by an omelette brunch special offered offer by Johnny D's in Davis Sq, Cambridge, MA. The ingredients sounded awesome, I just wasn't so sure about them being in an omelette, so wrote down the ingredients and tried making a salad out of them. Turned out well! Restaurant actually used white beans, not butter beans, but 1) couldn't find white beans at the market the day I made this, and 2) I *love* butter beans. But use whatever you like best!

Steps:
- Heat oil or butter in a medium pan over medium-high heat.

Stir onions every 5 minutes or so. Add brown sugar toward the end only if you feel onions are not sweet enough for you.
- While onions are caramelizing, rinse and plate arugula. Crumble goat cheese and sprinkle over arugula.
- Rinse beans, then divide evenly among the plates.
- Once onions are caramelized, add them on top of the salad.
- Shred mozzerella over the salads (or sprinkle pre-shredded cheese).
