Preparation Time: 30 minutes or less Cooking Time: 30 minutes or less Serves: 2
Ingredients:
Salad - Fuji Apple, Bacon, Frisee, Toasted Pecans and a Mustard Vinaigrette
You will need an apple, bacon, frisee or other mildly bitter salad green, pecans, fresh thyme, whole grain mustard, red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, half a shallot, salt and pepper.
Step 1:
First make the pecans: take a small handful of halved pecans (walnuts would also work), toss with a very small amount of oil, salt, pepper and sugar, and toast in a 350 degree oven (I use a toaster oven) for just a few minutes. Keep a very close eye on them as they will turn black in the blink of an eye. If you smell them, they are probably very close to burning. Set aside when done.
