In the bottom of a large mixing bowl, whisk all the ingredients for the dressing together until well emulsified.
Add the baby greens (4 cups) and toss together well with tongs to coat in the dressing.
Add the sliced red onion (¼ cup), the dried cranberries (¼ cup), and the candied nuts (¼ cup) to the bowl on top of the greens. Use the tines of a fork to crumble the soft goat cheese (2 oz.) directly into the bowl.
Toss everything gently together. Divide into two serving bowls or plates and serve.
