Green salad with walnuts and cheese brings fresh leafy greens together with crunchy walnuts and pieces of cheese. It is easy to adapt to whatever greens are in season, and a simple dressing—often olive oil with lemon or vinegar—lets the ingredients stand out.
The leaves taste fresh, the walnuts add a toasted crunch, and the cheese brings a savoury, creamy contrast. Serve it as a side with lunch or dinner, or make it a light meal with bread; it also fits easily alongside other dishes on a shared table. It offers fibre and protein, while walnuts contribute much of its unsaturated fat. For a lighter version, use a modest amount of dressing and add extra greens.
