Ingredients

2 whole Nectarines, Halved And Pitted
Olive Oil, For Drizzling
2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard
2 teaspoons White Wine Vinegar
2 teaspoons Honey
1/2 cup Olive Oil
Salt And Black Pepper To Taste
6 ounces, weight (1 Bag Or Box) Salad Greens (good Spring Mix) Or Arugula
2 ounces, weight Stilton, Gorgonzola, Or Other Blue Cheese, Chunked
1/2 cup Slivered Almonds

Instructions

Drizzle nectarine halves with a little olive oil. Grill cut side down for 2-3, turning midway to achieve lovely grill marks. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together Dijon, vinegar, honey, and sugar. Whisk in 1/2 olive oil to emulsify. Add salt and pepper and mix.
Toast slivered almonds in a small skillet over medium-low heat until just turning golden brown.
In a large bowl, toss lettuce with enough of the dressing to lightly coat (you won't use all of the dressing; save to have another salad tomorrow!) Toss in warm toasted almonds.
Divide lettuce among four plates. Place a nectarine half on each serving. Drizzle nectarine with a little more dressing. With a fork, cut blue cheese into chunks and distribute among the four plates.
* Grill more fruit if you'd like each plate to have two halves instead.
