Gouda Strawberry Salad

GOUDA STRAWBERRY SALAD 
This is a recipe I obtained from an Estate sale. I obtained it when I 
purchased the family collection from the Elmquist Estate in Heath, 
Texas in 1981.
3 cups romaine
3 cups fresh spinach
8 ounces sliced Gouda cheese
2 cups sliced juicy red strawberries
1/2 cup toasted ground pecans
Strawberry Vinaigrette:
1/4 cup seedless strawberry jam or strawberry preserves
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup red wine, strawberry or raspberry vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Arrange greens on four salad plates.
Arrange cheese in wedges and strawberries alternately on greens.
Use 2 ounces of cheese and 1/2 cup strawberries per plate.
Divide dressing between four plates and garnish with 2 tablespoons 
pecans.
For vinaigrette whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl.
Place in jar with lid and chill until ready to use.
