Kumquat Spring Green Salad with Apricot Balsamic Dressing
Kumquats are sweet/tart and delicious with spring greens, sourdough croutons, and an apricot balsamic dressing.
6 cups spring green baby lettuces
3 green onions, sliced
¼ cup kumquats, sliced
3 slices sourdough, cubed
¼ cup avocado oil
Salt and pepper
Apricot Balsamic Dressing:
3 Tbsp apricot jam
3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 lemon, juiced
⅔ cup olive oil
Garlic salt and pepper, to taste
Add baby lettuces, green onions and kumquats to your salad bowl. Heat the oil over high heat in a large skillet. Add the cubed bread and stir till browned and crunchy. Remove croutons to a bowl with a paper towel in it to absorb any extra oil. Add salt and pepper to the croutons while still hot. When cooled add to the salad.
Shake all dressing ingredients in a mason jar and pour over the salad just before serving.
