About

If you're looking for a colorful appetizer, this is it. It is really deconstructed version of a very popular spinach salad, usually served with fruit, dried cranberries and a raspberry vinaigrette.

Creamy blue cheese, dried cranberries and toasted walnuts top endive, or apple slices. Easy and delicious!
