Cheese And Green Leafy Salads - Formally Known As Watercress And

1. Divide greens on 4 salad plates.

2. Cut cheese into cubes removing rind if preferred. Place on top of greens.

3. Whisk together lemon rind, juice and olive oil.

4. Drizzle dressing over greens and cheese dividing equally between the 4 plates.

5. Salt and pepper (freshly ground is best) if desired.

6. Note: Remember when substituting ingredients to pick a spicy green like arugula or rocket and a mild cheese like queso fresco or even a montery jack- not as mild but still would be good here. Let me know what your combos are!

7. Thanks Cookgirl for suggesting the queso fresco- we have some great ones made locally.
