ARUGULA & RADICCHIO SALAD w/FETA & DATES

By BobD

Ingredients

• Wishy-washy greens needn't apply: A gorgeously balanced symphony of peppery and bitter greens, cut with a lemony vinaigrette that makes the feta go creamy, and an occasional pop of sticky, sweet date,
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup pitted dates
• 1/4 pound baby arugula (8 cups)
• 1 (3/4-pound) head radicchio, torn into bite-size pieces (6 cups)
• 3 ounces crumbled feta (1/2 cup)
