Apricot, Goat Cheese, and Pistachio Salad
 

Serves 1

Ingredients:
7 dried apricots, sliced
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled (I use fat-free feta, as I don't care for goat cheese.)

2 cups lettuces, chopped (romaine, bibb, red leaf, etc.)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil


Instructions:
Mix ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss and serve.

This sounds scrumptious, Kara! I am most definitely going to make it soon!

This is soooo delicious. I've had it for lunch about 4 times in the last week. The first time I made it with feta, but then picked up some goat cheese crumbles, and the combination of the creamy goat cheese with the apricots is just perfect. I don't think I'll get tired of this for a long time!
