Mister gardener complied when I asked him for the recipe for a especially delicious salad he prepared recently. Since his lettuces are so wonderful right now, we are enjoying a variety of salads. And, of course, my sweet tooth was satisfied when I tasted this one:
Romaine with Oranges and Avocados
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tbsp juice of an orange
3 tsp honey
1/2 tsp Dijon Mustard
3 tsp chopped chives
1 tsp orange zest
salt/pepper to taste
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 bunch romaine lettuce
1 avocado, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
1 navel orange, sectioned
1/4 cup pecan pieces, toasted
Add first 8 ingredients to a jar and shake well. Arrange the rest of the salad ingredients on a salad plate. Shake dressing again and drizzle over the salad and serve. This recipe can serve 4 but we (or I) had no trouble finishing it off at one sitting. Enjoy.

Mr. Gardener needs his own cooking show on FoodTV! Or maybe he should try out to be a contestant for the next foodtv!
