Mixed Greens Salad with Goat Cheese, Cranberries, and Bacon

This is a quick salad that combines many ingredients that I like in a salad. It contains fruit, bacon, cheese, and nuts.

Mixed Greens Salad with Goat Cheese, Cranberries, and Bacon

1 bag mixed greens
3 slices turkey bacon
1/2 cup dried cranberries
4 oz goat cheese
1/2 cup diced walnuts

I served this salad with a light balsamic dressing.

Cook bacon according to package directions (I microwaved the bacon for 2 minutes and 30 seconds).
Drain any grease from bacon and dice into small pieces.
Add the greens, bacon, cranberries, crumbled goat cheese, and walnuts to a large bowl.
Drizzle salad with balsamic dressing.
