It's a 3 or 4 lb. bag. Delicious when you blend a hand-ful with no-fat Fage Greek yogurt! <br />Here's a favorite salad of mine - either from my mother or a long-ago restaurant meal. I always write down where recipes come from but forgot to this time: <br />Autumn Salad<br /><br />4 1/2 oz. baby arugula or baby spinach<br /><br />1/2 pint (1 C.) fresh blueberries, rinsed and drained, or frozen blueberries, thawed in a single layer on a paper towel for 20 minutes<br /><br />1/4 C. smoked almonds, coarsely chopped (or slivered toasted almonds if smoked not available)<br />1 Jonathan, Jonagold or similar apple, cored and cut into 1/2” cubes<br />1/4 C. olive oil<br />2 T. sherry vinegar<br />freshly cracked pepper<br />1/2 C. crumbled Gorgonzola or goat cheese<br /><br />Put the arugula, blueberries, almonds and apple cubes in a salad bowl. Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, salt and a few twists from a pepper mill. Pour over salad and toss to blend. Sprinkle cheese on top, or serve on the side. Serve immediately.abbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08879476262337290531noreply@blogger.com
