Radicchio and spinach make a great colorful salad. Radicchio has a pepper-like flavor and adds texture to salads. It tastes a bit bitter so don't use it in large amounts.
Ingredients:
Salad:
- 1 small head radicchio
- 3 oz. baby spinach
- 1/2 cup chopped and roasted walnuts
Dressing:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 large garlic clove, chopped
- pepper to taste
Wash the radicchio leaves and dry them with a kitchen towel. Cut them in strips. Place them in a bowl. Add the spinach with walnuts on top.
In a small bowl, mix all the dressing ingredients.
You can prepare this salad one hour before dinner and keep it in the refrigerator until serving.
