The Goat
Cheese Salad can be a fresh appetizer or a light meal. With its bright colors it
is a perfect dish for your Easter lunch table. Lamb’s lettuce is tender and
sweet. Cherry tomatoes give freshness. Goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes are
tasty. Finally, the balsamic dressing perfectly matches the flavours.

100 gr
of mixed tender leaf salad, washed

cherry tomatoes, washed and halved

How to
prepare:
First
prepare the dressing. In a small bowl put all the ingredients for the dressing
and whisk them with a fork until you have a homogeneous sauce. Taste and if
necessary adjust salt and pepper.
Put the
salads in a bowl and pour the balsamic dressing into it. Mix well. Then transfer
the salad onto a large serving plate.
Now, nicely arrange the cherry tomatoes, the sun-dried tomatoes and the goat cheese
on the top on the salad. Serve the Goat Cheese Salad with fresh bread or
croutons.
Do not
dress the salad earlier than 30 minutes before or it will become flabby and
loose its volume.
