The slightly bitter mixed endives are tossed with savory shiitake mushrooms, sweet red grapes, chunks of toasted pecans, and drizzled with a honey-Dijon mustard vinaigrette served with a side of crusty baguette oozing with melted goat cheese and butter.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400º F. Using a small mixing bowl, mix whole shiitakes, a pinch of salt and pepper, plus 1 teaspoon of the extra-virgin olive oil. Mix and put on a small roasting pan, reserve bowl for later use. Cook in the oven for 10-11 minutes, remove from oven, place mushrooms and the liquid from the mushrooms cooking in a small bowl and allow to cool. Turn oven down to 325º F.

* Step 2

Place pecans on the roasting pan used for the mushrooms and place in the oven for 6-8 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove from oven and set a side.

* Step 3

In the reserved mixing bowl, combine mustard, vinegar, honey and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix to combine and slowly add in remaining olive oil while whisking with a wire whisk.

* Step 4

Slice the mushrooms and add them along with the mushroom liquid to the bowl with the vinaigrette.

* Step 5

Cut the baguette in half by length. Spread butter on the bread and follow with the goat cheese. Remove the pecans from the tray and put the bread on the tray and place in the oven. Cook bread for 7-8 minutes or until melted and toasted. While the bread toasts chop mixed lettuces and halve the grapes.

* Step 6

Roughly chop the pecans and place in a large mixing bowl, add mixed lettuces and grapes. Once the toasted bread is ready, add the shiitakes and the dressing to the large bowl and gently mix to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
