Mixed Berry & Baby Herb Salad with Lemon Ginger Dressing

 salad

I always have trouble naming salad creations.  I mean, you want people to know all the good stuff that is in it, right?  This was a delicious salad, with lots of my favorite flavors.  The sweetness of the berries, the spiciness of the herbs, the tangy lemon, and then the sweet bite of ginger was …in a word.  yum.

1 bag organic baby herb salad mix (or spring mix, or whatever you like)

1 pint blueberries

2 cups dried cranberries

1 cup chopped walnuts

1/2 cup chopped red onion

1/4 cup culinary lavender buds

Mix together and set aside.

Dressing: 

1/4 cup lemon juice

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup light flavored oil

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

1 pinch salt

1 tablespoon lemon zest

Shake well to blend.
