Quick, easy and tasty! Salad greens, fresh blueberries are tossed with balsamic blueberry vinaigrette, topped with crumbled goat cheese and maple glazed hazelnuts.

Very simple, quick and easy recipe. Might even coax some non-tofu people to give it a try. The slices are coated with a gentle smoky spice mixture and cooked in a blackened Cajun style to a lightly crispy exterior then finished with a honey lemon glaze. Great color and great flavor to an otherwise humble protein. Try to find smoked paprika if you can or add a few drops of liquid smoke to the marinade.

Using seasonal parsnips and pears, adding skim-milk gives the soup more creamy flavor, drizzle concentrated balsamic vinegar on top. It is a fabulous dish.

This salad's presentation is quite lovely. The citrus vinaigrette is top notch and we use the leftovers for other vegetables. The combination of orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit really kick it up a notch. If you really want to impress your guests and blow them away with sophistication this is sure to wow them. Or just make the dressing and use it for other dishes and turn any ordinary vegetable into something special.
