Wash the mixed greens thoroughly and dry them in a salad spinner. Chop into bite-sized pieces and place in a large bowl.

Dice the apple and sprinkle it over the greens. Add crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, dried cherries or cranberries, crumbled bacon, and pecans.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the balsamic dressing ingredients until well combined.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine, ensuring everything is evenly coated.

Serve immediately to enjoy the crispness of the greens and crunch of the pecans.
