Ingredients

Serves: 4-6
Salad
4 cups mixed baby greens
½ cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped
2 pears, thinly sliced
4 oz Humboldt Fog® , thinly sliced or gently crumbled
Dressing
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp honey
3 tbsp white, apple cider or white balsamic vinegar
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. This recipe is a bit long and may look intimidating, but it is really just three distinct
    steps that all come together at the end—and it’s a vegetarian main course
    showstopper. First, make the dough and chill it (you can even do this days or weeks
    ahead). Then you make a simple leek filling and a pomegranate-honey glaze, both
    of which can be stored for a couple days ahead. Finally, a rustic galette assembly
    and baking. Make sure to hang on to any leftover pomegranate sauce; it’s delicious
    with Humboldt Fog as a snack.

  2. Make the Dough

    Mix the first 4 dressing ingredients and then slowly whisk in the EVOO. Add salt and pepper to taste, set aside
    Toss mixed baby greens gently with dressing, top with pecans, sliced pears and Humboldt Fog®.
