Quick Trader Joe's Year-Round Salad — Jazz Leaf

Step 1

Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl.

Step 2

Add all of the ingredients of the dressing into a mason jar, small blender, or bowl. Shake, blend or whisk well until it's all blended. Toss the salad with the homemade balsamic dijon vinaigrette. Serve immediately.

Step 3

To toast the nuts and seeds, just place them on a non-stick pan for about 5 minutes on medium heat to warm. Stir a few times to keep it from burning.

Step 4

Use any greens for the spring mix and arugula. This is also really good with romaine or butter lettuce.

Step 5

Try green grapes instead of red.

Step 6

Try green apples instead of red.

Step 7

Try gorgonzola cheese or blue cheese instead of feta.

Step 8

Any nuts and seeds would work in place of the pumpkin and walnuts. I love sliced almonds, pecans, and sunflower seeds as well.

Step 9

Try dried cranberries instead of dried cherries.
