Butter lettuce with blue cheese and cayenne-candied walnuts from Cravings - Recipes for All the Food You Want to Eat (page 71) by Chrissy Teigen and Adeena Sussman

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Very good. Would maybe soak the onions next time as another reviewer did - they were strong. The candied walnuts made the dish.

    My head of butter lettuce was quite large, so there was just the right amount of dressing. I sprinkled some extra blue cheese on top as well. I'm not a big fan of raw alliums, so I soaked the shallot and red onion in water to help tame the bite, which worked nicely for my taste. The combination of flavors was very nice. Watch the nuts constantly during cooking; they burn easily (like the first batch I made).

    The cayenne candied nuts were great, although I thought the proportion of sugar was too much and ended up adding an extra 1/4 cup of walnuts. I liked this salad.

    This has now become our go-to salad. The candied nuts are a nice addition, although I make it often without. When I make it for others, I'm asked for the recipe ~ so that says a lot.
