10 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Nectarines, Halved And Pitted
  • Olive Oil, For Drizzling
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard
  • 2 teaspoons White Wine Vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Honey
  • 1/2 cups Olive Oil
  • Salt And Black Pepper To Taste
  • 6 ounces, weight (1 Bag Or Box) Salad Greens (good Spring Mix) Or Arugula
  • 2 ounces, weight Stilton, Gorgonzola, Or Other Blue Cheese, Chunked
  • 1/2 cups Slivered Almonds

Directions

  1. 1
    Drizzle nectarine halves with a little olive oil. Grill cut side down for 2-3, turning midway to achieve lovely grill marks. Set aside.
  2. 2
    In a bowl, whisk together Dijon, vinegar, honey, and sugar. Whisk in 1/2 olive oil to emulsify. Add salt and pepper and mix.
  3. 3
    Toast slivered almonds in a small skillet over medium-low heat until just turning golden brown.
  4. 4
    In a large bowl, toss lettuce with enough of the dressing to lightly coat (you won't use all of the dressing; save to have another salad tomorrow!) Toss in warm toasted almonds.
  5. 5
    Divide lettuce among four plates. Place a nectarine half on each serving. Drizzle nectarine with a little more dressing. With a fork, cut blue cheese into chunks and distribute among the four plates.
  6. 6
    * Grill more fruit if you'd like each plate to have two halves instead.
