Apple & Gorgonzola Salad with Celery Seed Dressing

Easy, yummy salad made from ingredients I often have on hand. I skipped the ham & raisins, because I was in a hurry & didn't have those ingredients. It was still very tasty & I'm sure those 2 ingredients would have been yummy, too.

Celery Seed Dressing Ingredients:

• 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup canola oil
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon celery seed
• Pinch salt

Salad Ingredients:

• 1 head Boston lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
• 1 1/2 apples, cut into julienne strips
• 1/2 cup golden raisins
• 1/3 cup cashews
• 2/3 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese
• 6 oz. shaved Rostello Roasted Ham

Directions:


1. To make dressing whisk together mustard and vinegar. While whisking, drizzle in oil and whisk until emulsified. Add sugar, celery seed and salt. Set aside.

2. In a large bowl combine lettuce, apple, raisins, cashews and reserved Celery Seed Dressing; toss well.

3. Divide salad between four plates. Sprinkle with gorgonzola, and place shaved Rostello Roasted Ham on salad.
