Harvest Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette

I made this for dinner last night and even Kenny went back for seconds. And it is pretty!

Ingredients

Salad

• 1 large head romain lettuce
• 1/2 - 1 (depending on the size) green apple, chopped (you could also use pear)
• 3/4 cup dried cranberries
• cinnamon candied pecans (I made my own but you can buy these or easily find a recipe)
• 4 ounces feta cheese or gorgonzola 
• 1 avocado chopped

Dressing (raspberry vinaigrette)

• 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 4 tablespoons white sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard (I didn't have this so I just used 1/2 teaspoon of dried)
• 1/2 cup fresh raspberries (if using frozen completely thaw first)
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil (I like avocado)
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons poppy seeds

For the dressing: Add all ingredients except oil and poppy seeds, blend well. Then while blending slowly add oil until emulsified. Then stir in poppy seeds.
