My husband recently dined on this salad at a local art museum's restaurant (and I helped myself to quite a bit of it). I liked it enough to make it for dinner one night this week. There are a number of ingredients and a little chopping involved, but it is worth the time it took to assemble. I am going to list the ingredients, but no measurements. I feel you can be very creative with the amounts. After all of the Christmas cookies I've been baking (and sampling) lately, I felt it was time for something really healthy. This is certainly it! • organic romaine, chopped • napa cabbage, chopped • kale, ribs removed and finely sliced • quinoa, cooked (recipe HERE) • organic beets (roasted in oven, then small dice) • butternut squash (small dice and steamed until tender) • cauliflower (small dice and steamed until tender) • organic apple (small dice) • smoked Gouda or Manchego cheese (small dice) • dried cranberries • candied walnuts (recipe HERE) • raw pumpkin seeds • apple cider vinaigrette (whisk equal amounts of apple cider vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil, season with salt and freshly ground pepper) • I hope you like this salad as much as I did.

Eileen this looks really good and completely unrealistic for me to tackle right now. I have too many baked goods in front of me to consume this fresh and fine recipe in good conscience. :-) I will revist after the New Year and a file of new resolutions. Warm regards, Tom
