Ingredients
  • 1 10-ounce bag of fresh baby spinach
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup gorgonzola or another creamy, blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup walnut pieces
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 6 tablespoons aged balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt and white pepper to taste

Directions
  1. For Candied walnuts:
  2. Put walnuts in a non-stick saute pan. Toast until oils are released and you can smell them. Sprinkle with sugar and let caramelize. Drizzle with honey and saute for a few more minutes until the walnuts are nicely glazed. Line a plate with parchment paper and pour nuts on it and spread them out to cool.
  3. Combine the spinach, raspberries, crumbled gorgonzola and candied walnuts in a salad bowl.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt and pepper until well blended.
  5. Add the vinaigrette to the salad and toss well. Drizzle any additional vinaigrette on the plates. Serve immediately.
