The original recipe called for Mache or Lamb’s Lettuce. I couldn’t find any, so used leaf lettuce instead. The brie pairs perfectly with pistachios and the honey was the perfect way to set it all off.
I could have this every night! It was wonderful!

Wow.. what gorgeous photos! I feel so unworthy of being in this group you all are so talented!! I am sure that was very tasty.
Ohh! Gorgeous Salad. I do have a wheel of Brie sitting in the fridge. May be I will make it for appetizers tonight.
Brie, ohhh. Covered with honey, or jam, or any of a number of condiments. Nothing better. As for the salad, I have a wonderful Cranberry and Pear infused White Balsamic vinegar that would be wonderful with this salad. And the photos are wonderful, you are becoming quite the foodie.
I don’t much care for brie but I’m a sucker for oven baked brie with honey and nuts. It must have been great eating that!
Melted brie. Nothing better!
I agree…this could be my dinner every night!
(Glad your truck made it through the fire!)
Hehe can I come over for dinner pretty please? That looks divine! 😀 I’m crazy for cheese in all forms 🙂
This looks so fancy, beautiful, and simple! I really wish I liked brie, because I’m sure this would be delicious. Those pistachios on top and the apples, yum.
What a delightful variety of taste bud teasers. Think I will try that on my company. Thanks.
looks wonderful!!!
Wow! This looks delicious!
Oh super YUM!
I had to look up mache. says it has a nutty flavor. Looking at photos of the leaves, I believe I’ve had it in lettuce/greens mixes–either bought or grown myself. I’ll be on the lookout for it now.
You said you need an ocean to sit by…
I LOVE the ocean/beach, but I also adore the mountains. You live in a beautiful part of the world!
That looks so good!
I could eat just this for a meal and be perfectly happy.
I totally agree with you, I don’t think I would tire of this meal anytime soon…it sounds delicious.
