Arugula Endive Salad with White Wine Vinaigrette

This was really not for the kids, but my husband and I enjoyed it thoroughly!

For the vinaigrette:
2 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
For the salad:
4 ounces arugula
2 heads of endive, chopped
1/3 cup toasted walnuts
Directions for vinaigrette:
Mix the wine, lemon juice, honey, mustard, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running gradually blend in the oil. Season the vinaigrette to taste with more salt and pepper, if desired.
Directions for the salad:
In a large bowl combine the arugula, endive, and walnuts. Toss with 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette to coat and adding more vinaigrette, if desired. Serve immediately. Any remaining vinaigrette can be saved in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days and should be brought up to room temperature before using. * Recipe from Giada De Laurentiis at food.com
