SAUTEED SUMMER FRUIT SALAD

Serves : 4
INGREDIENTS
  • 2 teaspoons Napa Valley organic olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon packed brown sugar
  • 12 organic strawberries hulled and halved
  • 1 ripe plum halved pitted and diced
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 4 1/2 ounce bag Ready Pac organic Mesclun blend greens
  • 1/4 cup Flanigan Farms pine nuts toasted
  • 4 tablespoons Chavrie goat cheese optional
DIRECTIONS

Heat the olive oil, orange juice and brown sugar together in a medium saucepan over moderately high heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Add the strawberries and plum pieces and cook until they begin to release their juices, about 2 minutes. Transfer fruit to a glass bowl with a slotted spoon.

Add the balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper to the pot. Cook the sauce 3 to 4 minutes until thickened. Pour sauce over the berries. Let stand to cool, at least 5 minutes.

Toss fruit and sauce with greens and pine nuts. Divide salad among four salad plates and place one tablespoon of goat cheese, if desired on each plate and serve immediately.
