Romaine Roasted Pepper And Pecan Salad Recipe
This is a great recipe for company. you can split the baby spinach and romaine - half half or use all of one. The roasted red peppers are really worthwhile and easy to do

This was yummy - just had it for lunch, but cheated with red peppers from Fresh Market.


How do you cut small pieces of Brie? Isn't this a really creamy cheese that is more of a blending or melting cheese. Otherwise it sounds very delicious!


I make sure that it's really cold. You'll notice that the pieces are about an inch by an inch. And then the thickness of the cheese. That's the way I do it. If it's still too difficult, it's possible to dampen a knife that is at least as broad as the cheese is thick and then it goes pretty fast. Just don't make the knife too wet and dry the cheese (if you can) afterwards.
You can also get a lower fat version of the regular brie although there are many who would not consider that real brie. :-)


Awesome dish, very nice combo.
