Peel and quarter the hard-boiled eggs. Slice the avocado in half, remove the seed, and cut the flesh into slices.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Place the mixed salad greens in a large serving bowl.
Arrange the cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, red bell peppers, radishes, avocado slices, and quartered eggs over the greens.
Drizzle the vinaigrette evenly over the salad.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Toss the salad gently before serving to ensure even distribution of ingredients and dressing. Serve immediately.
