Beautiful Mixed Salad with Flowers and Golden Raspberries

Beautiful Mixed Salad with Flowers and Golden Raspberries

2 heads butter lettuce, or a combination of butter lettuce and arugula, or very fresh young red leaf lettuce
1 pint golden raspberries
1/2 cup loosely packed edible flowers, or more if you happen to get a deal at the farmer's market like I did
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted lightly
French feta cheese, crumbled, about 1/2 cup

1 T Champagne vinegar
3 T olive oil
Rose water (optional)

Wash and tear lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Toss together with raspberries and flowers (gently). Combine dressing ingredients and toss salad. Sprinkle almonds and feta over the top.

Serves: 6
