For candied pecans, beat egg white and water until frothy. In separate bowl, combine sugar, salt and cinnamon. Add pecans to egg whites, stirring to coat nuts evenly.

For dressing, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper in jar with screw-top lid. Shake until blended. Add blueberries. Chill until served. Dressing makes 1 1/2 cups. Pour vinaigrette to taste on salad. Makes about 6 servings.
