Greens with Raspberries, Asiago and Cashews

This is one of my “go to” salad dressing and I just added a few interesting ingredients.  This salad would also be great with the addition of blueberries, strawberries, pears or grilled chicken.  I always have leftover dressing since I like to lightly dress my salads.  Which is a bonus because then I have enough for another day.   Abundant fruit and beautiful weather, feels like salad time to me.
