Burstin' Berry Salad

Recipe From: Laura Watson

This was the juicy, mouth watering,  berry salad that was enjoyed by all at Kirk's graduation party.   Here's to a perfect salad for those warm summer days just around the corner.  Yeah! 
 
9-10 cups organic mixed salad greens, cut up
1 small package of frozen berry mix 
OR
1 c. EACH of fresh raspberries,  strawberries,  blueberries 
(Ideally, you want fresh fruit as the frozen ones left behind some juice and messy as u stir)
1/2 c. sugar covered almonds or pecans (I got em at Winco in bulk or make your own*)

optional 
1/8c - 1/4 c. feta cheese

Dressing
2 1/2 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Tbsp Honey
1/2 c. raspberries  (I threw in a handful of huckleberries as well)
1/4 c. white wine vinegar
1/4 tsp. salt

Blend the dressing ingredients all together in blender. When ready to serve, toss berries, dressing and greens together. 

*If you want to make your own sugar pecans or sugar coated almonds, toss nuts in a buttered skillet on medium heat.  Add about  1 1/2 tbsp. sugar and sprinkle 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Stir til nuts become a light brown; remove from heat.
