This is a tasty main dish salad. The dish has Middle Eastern over tones but the the addition of avocado, enoki mushrooms and pea tendrils adds a bit of Fusion twist. Candied pecans and dried cherries add textural dimension to the tender butter lettuce. If you don't have orange muscat champagne vinegar; sherry vinegar would work fine. As for wine something fruity and light is appropriate. I opted for a Jacuzzi Family Vineyards 2009 Gilia's Vernaccia.
