ROMAINE WITH FETA AND BLUEBERRIES

Steps:

• Wash and dry romaine and tear into bite-sized pieces.
• Use a mini food processor/blender to puree feta, vinegar, olive oil, honey & shallot (if using).
• Toss romaine with dressing and add your washed and dried blueberries and toss again -- gently.
• Apparently you can make the dressing up to two days in advance, but we made it and ate it right way. We had some leftovers for a small snack in the evening.
• This would also be good with some toasted almonds sprinkled in, but more calories then!

Steps:

• Thinly slice the cucumber halves. You need just 1 cup. In a bowl, combine the cucumber with the onion and sprinkle with the salt. Mix, then let sit for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the romaine in a large salad bowl. Break the feta into small (1/2-inch) pieces and drop them into the bowl. Gather the cucumber and onion in your fist and squeeze out any excess moisture. Scatter them over the romaine. Sprinkle the oil and vinegar over the salad. Grind pepper over top and then mix the salad gently so that you dress it without mashing the cheese to bits.
