Cafe Green Salad By Melissa D Arabian

---

I am really happy she won the next food network star challenge and really look forward to watching more of her show ten dollar dinners with melissa d'arabian". This is a great recipe that is easy to toss together yet really fresh tasting. Why use bottled dressing when you can do this?"

Steps

---

Rub the inside of a large wooden bowl with the garlic clove and then either discard it or save it for another use.

---

Put the mustard in the bowl and whisk in the balsamic vinegar and soy sauce vigorously for about 10 seconds to get a creamy consistency.

---

Season with salt and pepper , to taste.

---

Drizzle in the olive oil as slowly as possible with 1 hand while whisking as quickly as possible with the other hand to emulsify.

---

Lay the salad greens on top of the dressing and toss just before serving.
