Because I don’t make boring salads, I absolutely love them!  I also love how there are so many ingredients that you can use to keep salads fun and tasty. Today I am sharing one of my favourite salad recipes!  I mean, who doesn’t like a salad with cranberries, walnuts, red onion, bacon, and Gorgonzola cheese?  Your tastebuds will be jumping for joy at all of the wonderful flavors in this salad, and you will thank me after you taste the honey bourbon walnuts.  Be sure that you use the freshest of ingredients, which can be purchased at your local Kroger. This super simple summer salad is a great start to any meal or you can add a protein to make it an entree.  If you do so, I suggest adding shrimp and/or chicken.  Let’s get started!
