Marcia's Butter Lettuce Salad

It's the New Year and many of us have made our healthy eating resolutions...yet again!  I thought it would be a good time to share a great salad recipe.  My long time friend Marcia has perfected this recipe and we all know this as her "signature" salad.  This is an easy recipe!  Serves 4-6.

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons sugar
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/3 cup sundried tomatoes chopped
2-3 heads butter lettuce

*Cook's note:  If I can't find nice, affordable butter lettuce at the stores, I use organic mixed greens and it's still a great salad.

To prepare:

1.  Combine mustard, sugar, oil, and vinegars.
2.  In a salad bowl toss butter lettuce, feta cheese and sundried tomatoes
3.  Toss with dressing right before serving.

Enjoy!
