Spiced Glazed Pecan, Berries & Goat Cheese Salad

This salad is a showstopper, and you will wow your guests when you serve it at your next family gathering. The lettuce, in and of itself, is fancy – a cool, crisp mix of petite tango, oak and gem lettuces. Layer on the creamy goat cheese with a hint of honey, tangy poached berries and pecans coated in a dark amber glaze with just a hint of cinnamon and allspice. Drizzle on a little of my Copycat Chick-fil-A^® Zesty Apple Cider Vinaigrette, and it will be a night to remember.

Wow your guests with this Spiced Glazed Pecan, Berries & Goat Cheese Salad.
