Ingredients

• 4 cups mixed salad greens (arugula, spinach, and frisée)
• 1.5 ounces Gruyère cheese
• 1.5 ounces Comté cheese
• 2 tablespoons walnuts, toasted
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1.5 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

Begin by prepping the salad ingredients: wash and dry the mixed salad greens thoroughly. Set aside in a large bowl.

Step 2

Using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife, shave the Gruyère and Comté cheeses into thin slices or ribbons. Keep the slices bite-sized.

Step 3

Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly browned. Let them cool before adding to the salad.

Step 4

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, honey, chopped chives, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to create the vinaigrette. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Step 5

Assemble the salad by adding the halved cherry tomatoes, toasted walnuts, and shaved cheeses to the bowl with the mixed greens.

Step 6

Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and gently toss to ensure even coating. Take care not to crush the ingredients.

Step 7

Divide the salad evenly between two plates or bowls, garnish with additional chives if desired, and serve immediately.
