Mixed Greens with Walnut and Roasted Onion Dressing image

The best part of this salad is the dressing. Its great on any salad and I prefer using big yellow onions that are strong in flavor. Add a bit of goat cheese for extra flavor.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love the combination of flavors and textures. The dressing is also really versatile - I've used it on other salads and even as a marinade for chicken.
