A delicious salad loaded with fresh berries and served with creamy blue cheese crumbles, avocado slices and tossed with a homemade poppyseed dressing.
In a sauce pan combine water, sugar, chopped pecans and heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
Remove from heat once sugar is dissolved, combine salt and cayenne pepper.
Toss until completed coated.
In a blender combine all salad dressing ingredients except for the poppy seeds and the oil, and blend for 20 seconds. With the blender on high, gradually add the oil in a slow, steady stream until the dressing emulsifies. Finish it off by stirring in the poppy seeds.
Layer the chopped lettuce on the bottom, and place all the individual prepped ingredients on top in groups or scattered all over.
Serve the dressing on the side or toss the salad with the poppyseed dressing.
