Let this summer go down in history as the summer of salad and burgers.
I’ve made some attempts to show you non-salad and non-burger recipes but ever since the earth reached its maximum axial-tilt one month ago (ohhh yeah, Wikipedia-ed that, son!) leafy greens and hunks of meat have had my full attention. Resistible? I think not!
I can’t seem to even oil up a skillet for pancakes. Ludicrous. Loaf of bread? Get yo’self right out of town. Haven’t even touched the ice cream maker, the oven’s pretty much off limits, and the only thing that’s going in the blender these days is…wait for it, wait for it….salad dressing. If it’s not coming straight from the ice box or hot off the grill, I ain’t interested. Until I am…but you’ll know when that time comes.
Last summer, I posted Massaged Kale Salad with Creamy Blueberry Vinaigrette and ever since, I’ve been wanting to re-make the vinaigrette recipe using raspberries. Done. So great! So pink!
Drizzle it a-top mixed greens, fresh raspberries, pistachios, and blue cheese and you’re looking at…skyyyyy rockets in flight! What. is. wrong. with. me.
Onward and upward, my furry friends. Go get your salad and tell someone you love them.
Here’s where you get the Creamy Raspberry Vinaigrette recipe.
Raspberry and Pistachio Salad with Creamy Raspberry Vinaigrette
Ingredients
- 5 ounces spring green mix
- 1 pint fresh ripe raspberries
- ¼ cup pistachios shelled and salted
- ¼ cup soft blue cheese crumbled
- 3 tablespoons creamy raspberry vinaigrette dressing* or to taste
Instructions
- Add spring green mix and creamy raspberry vinaigrette to a salad bowl and toss to coat the greens. If more dressing is desired do so now and toss.
- Add the remaining ingredients and toss everything together.
- Serve immediately, as leftover salad is lame.

I really like this. I’m starting to experiment more with salads at the moment and this looks great. With you on the veto of the oven! Especially in this heat!
I saw this on facebook and knew it would be a winner! the dressing is killer my friend!
Thanks lady! Let me know if you try it!
How much wine do you drink before you write your posts? Because whatever the answer is, I might have to start matching it. Haha. Also, how pretty is this salad??? Love it.
BUSTED!! 😉 It depends on the day, lol…it doesn’t take much to get me all loosey goosey and then the creative juices a-flow. Half a bottle…..errrrr…..glass….. 😉
I have just rekindled my love affair with pistachios (that’s not weird, right?), so I am totally on board with this salad. And creamy raspberry vinaigrette?! Yes!
Not weird at all! Pistachios are a great love affair to have! This is the first time I used them on salad and I loved it! 🙂
I am right there with you. We’re actually getting AC installed as I type so maybe I’ll be more willing to bake/cook. But if not, this salad will certainly hit the spot! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Looks just delicious!
This is my idea salad and the strawberry vinaigrette sounds amazing!
Over here it’s been the summer of ice cream and popsicles. I think I need to take a page from your playbook and get this beautiful salad on the table!
You are my fave for incorporating “Afternoon Delight” into this recipe post. That is awesome. 🙂
Now about this salad — GENIUS. I love everything about it. Even my husband would love this salad and he is a total meat-and-potatoes dude!
Yaaaaay so glad to hear it! My boyfriend wouldn’t touch the salad (wah waaaaah)…no interest whatsoever on his end. Hope you two lovebirds enjoy – the dressing is awesome!
BEAUTIFUL! Seriously, so pretty and I love, love , love everything you have going on here. Simple, but SO good!
Oh and the blue cheese? heck yes!
Extreme heat=no desire to cook. It’s to dang hot, my hair twangs in the humidity, and there’s sweat dripping from my upper lip. It’s not pretty. I think I’ll pass on cooking and make this gorgeous salad.
Smart thinking! And then a hefty bowl of funky monkey ice cream afterwards to balance out the day is the right way to go! 😉
