Lemon-Walnut Dressing
Ingredients
1/3 cup walnuts
1 small head Boston or butterhead lettuce, or 3 c. mixed greens
1 cup slivered radicchio
1 cup frisée (if available), washed, dried and torn into bite size pieces
1 endive, cored and cut lengthwise into slivers
1 crisp apple, cut into quarters and cored
Fresh lemon juice
4oz goat cheese, crumbled

To toast the walnuts for both the salad and the dressing, preheat the oven to 350º.  Place nuts on a baking sheet and roast for 7 to 9 minutes.  Remove from oven and cool.  Rub cooled nuts with your hands or a cotton towel to remove as much brown skin as possible.  Roughly chop walnuts and set aside.

Combine the lettuce, radicchio, frisée and endive in a salad bowl or on a serving platter.  Slice each apply quarter as thinly as possible; sprinkle with lemon drops to prevent discoloring.  Add apple slices to the salad and top with crumbled goat cheese and chopped walnuts.
