Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil or oil of your choosing, I often use avocado
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp Dijon
  • 2 tsp white wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp lemon juice
  • ¼ lb mushrooms sliced
  • 3 green onions sliced thin, include part of green
  • ½ cup walnuts chopped optional ~ I've also used almonds
  • 2 oz blue cheese crumbles
  • 1 ½ cup lettuce leaves torn or chopped well, up to you
  • 6 cherry tomatoes or however many you like :)

Instructions
 

  • Mix together the oil, Dijon, vinegar, lemon and spices
  • Stir in mushrooms and get well coated (you could add green onion as well)
  • Set aside to combine and rest for at least an hour at room temp (I cover with plastic wrap for safety) (I've also done this ahead of time and stored in fridge till needed up to 3 days later)
  • Mix in walnuts, blue cheese, lettuce and tomatoes ----- you can also serve this deconstructed where each item sits atop the lettuce bed
