Belgian Endive Salad

You need four or five Belgian endives cut in slices about 1/4 inch wide, 200 g cooked ham , 100 gr Gruyère cheese or Emmenthal, both cut in small dices or in litle sticks one inch long, 6 walnuts cut in quarters.

The dressing is 1 large tbsp Grainy Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper.
