- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 large Avocado
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil

- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Begin by preparing the vegetables. Rinse and dry the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and set them aside.
Peel the cucumber if desired and slice it thinly.
Cut the red onion into thin slices.
Remove the seeds and core from the red bell pepper and slice it into thin strips.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and dice the flesh into bite-sized pieces.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, red bell pepper, and avocado.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly.
Roughly chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the salad along with the toasted almonds.
Toss once more to incorporate all ingredients thoroughly.
Serve the Paleo Salada Mista immediately, or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
