Curly Endives Salad With Balsamic Dressing


















After the sinful indulgent of venison stew, it was time to eat more veggies and since I had made some crustless quiche it would nice to make a salad to go with it.  I had this fix in just a few minutes...this home chef is a fast worker no doubt about it :p  Put  all the curly endives and  cut strawberries into a salad bowl. Tossed in the balsamic dressing, Garnish with grated cheddar cheese and coarsely chopped toasted hazelnuts and the salad is ready for serving.  Great salad to serve with my Crustless Salmon & Spinach Quiche :)



I don't know about you , but I am a lover of balsamic vinegar and this dressing goes well with this salad . All you have to do is to add in olive oil and dried italian herbs to the balsamic vinegar . This dressing is easy to make and after mixing it together , leave it for an hour for the infusion to take place and it ready for the salad .
