cheese and salad course
Ingredients:
selection of three cheeses: triple crème, blue and goat, about 6 ounces each
1 french baguette
6 generous handfuls of mixed greens
6 Tbsp emulsified dressing
Directions:
One to two hours before your guests arrive unwrap the cheeses and place on a decorative plate. Cover the plate with a sheet of plastic wrap and leave at room temperature. Right before serving uncover and place cheese knives on the plate.
Warm the baguette in a 350 degree oven for five minutes. Place the warm bread in a bread basket or on a plate.
Toss the greens with the dressing in a pretty bowl.
Pass the salad in the salad bowl, the bread and the cheese plate allowing guests to help themselves.
