Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cranberry Pecan Salad with Feta.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a toasty 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, spread the pecan halves in a single layer on a baking sheet and let them toast for 8 to 10 minutes, watching closely until they turn a delightful golden brown and release a nutty aroma.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine raspberry vinegar, Dijon mustard, sugar, salt, and black pepper, whisking until the sugar and salt dissolve completely.
Step 4
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, continuing to whisk until the dressing is perfectly blended.
Step 5
In a large salad bowl, mix together the vibrant salad greens, toasted pecans, sweet dried cranberries, thinly sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
Step 6
Finish by drizzling the homemade vinaigrette over the salad, then toss gently to ensure every ingredient is beautifully coated.
Step 7
Enjoy this refreshing salad that brings together a symphony of flavors and textures!.
