Strawberry Mozzarella Salad with Chocolate Vinaigrette
This salad is truly an original. It's great for guests since it's so darn pretty as well as tasty.
1 pkg. spring mix salad greens or baby spinach
1/2 box alfalfa sprouts
1 1/2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
8 oz. fresh mozzarella cheese pearls
1/4 cup Dark Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar
1/4 cup Blood Orange or Unflavored Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash black pepper
Slivered almonds, lightly toasted
Combine the greens and sprouts in a large salad bowl. Top with the strawberries and mozzarella. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small container with a tight-fitting cap and shake vigorously. Drizzle as much of the vinaigrette as you wish. Top with the almonds. Serve.
