5 cups mixed greens, herbs and lettuce
1/4 pound blue cheese, crumbled
1 red onion, very thinly sliced
1/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Dressing:
1 cup fresh cranberries
1 seedless navel orange, peeled and sectioned
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup wine vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground mustard
1 cup olive or vegetable oil

In a blender, combine the cranberries, orange sections, sugar,
vinegar, salt, and ground mustard. Process till combined. Then
remove the blender cover and gradually add oil in a steady stream.
Set aside. Rip all of the greens into bite size pieces. I like using
an assortment of spring or baby greens along with romaine lettuce,
spinach and herbs such as sprigs of dill, basil, and cilantro. To
assemble place a handful of the salad mix on a plate or in a bowl,
and top with some of the cheese and the walnuts. Pass the dressing
to guests to drizzle over the salad.
