Endive, Romaine, and Orange Salad for Two

From the kitchen of Carly

Bright citrus dressing coats crisp endive and romaine, studded with juicy orange segments and fresh parsley. A shower of cracked pepper and shaved Gouda adds savory depth. Light enough for a weeknight dinner, elegant enough for company.
