Serves 6
| 1 | large bunch arugula |
| 2 | cups mizuna |
| 2 | cups torn romaine lettuce leaves |
| 2 | cups torn red leaf lettuce (such as lollo rosa or red sails) |
| 1 | small bunch micro greens such as red giant mustard or curly cress (optional) |
| 1 | recipe Mustardy vinaigrette (at right) |
| Salt and pepper, to taste | |
| 1 | cup walnut pieces |
| 1 | cup crumbled blue cheese |
1. Wash the greens thoroughly and spin them dry. (If the leaves are not completely dry, the vinaigrette will not adhere to them.)
2. In a salad bowl, place the arugula, mizuna, romaine, red leaf, and micro greens. Toss gently. Drizzle the greens with several spoonfuls of the vinaigrette and toss gently. Add more dressing, a spoonful at a time, until the leaves are barely coated.
3. Divide the salad among 6 plates and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add walnuts and blue cheese. Alison Arnett ![]()
