Recipes: Red & Blue Patriotic Salad

Fresh Red & Blue Patriotic Salad

I have been enjoying the fresh salads lately with the warmer temperatures.  The other day as I was looking through the refrigerator for lunch ideas and decided to use up some leftovers along with some fresh fruit and greens.  The salad turned out delicious.  It was cool and crispy with a touch of sweetness in every bite.

The recipe below is for a single serving, however, this would be a great one to make into a larger salad to share for the July 4th Holiday or really anytime throughout the hot summer season.  Whether at a picnic, party, celebration, or any other event the salad is sure to be a hit.  Plus it’s healthy, colorful, and delicious!

Red & Blue Patriotic Salad Recipe:

• 2 cups Fresh Romaine Lettuce
• 1/4 cup cut Fresh Strawberries
• 1/4 cup Fresh Blueberries
• 3 oz Sirloin Steak, slivered
• 1 tablespoon Walden Farms Raspberry Vinaigrette

Rinse the romaine lettuce, strawberries, and blueberries.  Cut up the romaine lettuce (if not already done so).  Place the romaine onto your plate or serving dish.  Cut the strawberries into quarters and add them to the top of the romaine.   Add the blueberries on top as well.  Sliver your sirloin steak and place it on the bed of romaine.  Sprinkle the Walden Farms Raspberry Viniagrette salad dressing over your salad, mix gently, and enjoy!

Optional: If you want to add a little bit of white to your Red & Blue salad to make it a Red, White, and Blue Salad I was suggest adding a sprinkling of cheese on top such as crumbled blue cheese, shredded parmesean, or mozzarella.
