Herbs De Provence Salad

INGREDIENTS:

~6-8 oz. Combination of Mache Lettuce (a french lettuce) and Butter Lettuce (There is a box of this combined lettuce at Trader Joe's, it is perfect and it tastes really fresh! But you could actually use any type of lettuce you have, I just prefer this combination.)

~Tiny white potatoes, size of grapes (bagged already, Trader Joes)

~1/2- 1 cup of shredded White Cheddar Cheese (The white cheddar makes all the difference- I actually don't like white cheddar on anything except this!)

~1 or 2 large White onions, diced and lightly sautéed in a little butter and then I roast them with the potatoes to get them really caramelized.

~Extra Virgin Olive Oil

~Salt and Pepper

~Herbs de Provence, dried (You can find them in the dried spices department of your grocery store- This is by far one of my favorite dried herb combinations)



Dressing:

1/3 cup white Balsamic vinegar

2/3 cup canola oil

2 1/2- 3 Tbsp brown sugar

1/2 Tbsp herbs de Provence

(This makes a little more dressing than you need, so you can save about half for another salad.)


INSTRUCTIONS:

Roast potatoes and onions 400 degrees for 30-40 minutes until tender, with olive oil, pepper, coarse salt and Herbs de Provence.

Cool for a few minutes. Assemble salad and serve immediately. ENJOY!
