Start by preheating your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) for toasting the almond flour tortillas.
Cut the almond flour tortillas into small triangles. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the tortilla pieces on it. Brush them with avocado oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes until they are golden brown and crisp. Set aside to cool.
Wash and dry the Romaine lettuce, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Peel and dice the cucumber into small cubes. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion. Thinly slice the radishes as well.
Finely chop the parsley and mint leaves.
In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, radishes, parsley, and mint.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, sumac, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to combine all the ingredients.
Break the cooled tortilla crisps into smaller bite-sized pieces and add them to the salad just before serving to ensure they stay crunchy.
Sprinkle the roasted sesame seeds over the top for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately as a refreshing, crunchy, low-carb appetizer or side dish.
