This gluten free and vegan Summer Fruit and Candied Pecan Salad is filled with just the right textures and flavors to have you coming back for more!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. freshly ground pepper
  • 1 Tbsp. + 2 tsp. raw honey or pure maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted & toasted pecan pieces
  • 1/2-1 granny smith apple, thinly sliced
  • 2 servings mixed greens
  • 1/2-1 pint blackberries
  • 1/3 cup diced brie (or avocado for vegan option)

Instructions

  1. Make the balsamic vinaigrette: Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and 2 tsp. honey/maple syrup to a small jar. Secure lid and shake until combined. Set aside.
  2. Prep the salad ingredients: Add 1 Tbsp. honey/maple syrup to a small skillet. Melt over medium heat, then add 2 Tbsp. pecan pieces. Mix to coat pecan pieces. Allow honey/maple syrup to bubble for 30 seconds, then remove and place on a piece of parchment paper. Place in freezer to set, about 10 minutes.
  3. Assemble the salad: Dress mixed greens in just enough dressing to lightly coat greens.* Place apple, blackberries, and brie on top. Crumble candied pecans on top.

Notes

*You will have leftover dressing. But this is a GOOD thing! Dress ALL the summer salads with this delicious 4-ingredient recipe or use it as a marinate for ALL the grilled things!
