    Raspberry Almond Mixed Greens Salad

    Mixed Greens With Raspberry Balsamic Vinaigrette Recipe

    With fresh raspberries abundant this time of year I just can’t get enough of them. Their deep red color and sweet juiciness make them the perfect addition to a summertime salad tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette with just a hint of raspberry sweetness. Our raspberry vinaigrette recipe with jam is so easy to make and adds just the right amount of fruity flavor to this raspberry vinaigrette salad.

    The addition of garlic and herb goat cheese rounds makes this tossed salad so fancy. Feel free to top it with cooked chicken and make it a meal or even change out the toasted almonds for walnuts or your favorite nut. You can also use 5 cups of your favorite blend of lettuces in place of the lettuce blend that I used in the recipe.
