Hearts are the smaller, yellow, inside leaves of the romaine lettuce plant. Look for unwilted leaves that have no black spots and you’ll find crunchy delicious lettuce for this blueberry salad.
Make sure the blueberries are ripe and sweet. Look for blueberries that are firm, dry, plump, and smooth-skinned. They should also have a silver-looking bloom and no leaves.

Pro Tips
Make sure you have ripe and sweet blueberries. If they are mushy or have any mold on them, throw them out! Frozen berries do not work well in this recipe.
Use your favorite prepared balsamic vinaigrette. My lemon vinaigrette is delicious with this salad. It’s quick and easy to make and requires only 5 ingredients.
Crumbling the goat cheese yourself from a log makes for creamier cheese. However, you can save a little time by buying crumbled goat cheese in a tub.
