Celery Citrus Salad with Balsamic & Feta
Serves 4
Crunchy celery contrasts with sweet, tender citrus in this lovely salad that perfectly exhibits how a touch of highly flavorful ingredients--balsamic vinegar and feta--can elevate a dish without adding too much in the way of fat or sodium.
Ingredients
5 honey tangerines, Murcotts or Satsumas
1 ounce (about 1/4 cup) feta cheese crumbles
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 cups (about 1/4 pound) mixed salad greens
1 cup roughly chopped celery leaves
3 cups sliced celery
1 ounce (about 1/4 cup) feta cheese crumbles
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 cups (about 1/4 pound) mixed salad greens
1 cup roughly chopped celery leaves
3 cups sliced celery
Method
Squeeze juice from one citrus fruit into a large bowl. Add feta cheese and vinegar and mix with a fork, mashing the cheese to make a dressing. Peel remaining citrus and separate into segments. Transfer to bowl with dressing. Add salad greens, celery leaves and celery and toss well.
