Cranberry, Feta, and Walnut Salad


Mike has claimed that he really likes the cranberry, walnut, feta, spinach salad ever since we had one at Aaron's house.  I don't even remember eating this salad at Aaron's house, and Mike really hasn't expressed an interest in any salad except Casear.

I found multiple recipes for this salad, some of which said it needed apples and other various ingredients.  The Cranberry Feta Walnut Salad recipe on food.com seemed pretty simple.  I still had to buy more of the ingredients, but at least I'll have them if I want to make the salad again (Mike has already requested it again!).

After looking at multiple recipes  though, I only put in a quarter of the feta and cranberries, and threw in a small handful of walnuts, without measuring it.  I also doubled the amount of mixed greens (I bought a package of mixed greens).  Other recipes called for up to 10 cups of mixed greens and the same amount of feta/cranberries.  I only put in 4 cups of mixed greens with one fourth of the other items.  I did put in all of the salad dressing.  It didn't seem like it had too much salad dressing, but I might put in two more cups of mixed greens with the same amount of salad dressing.
