Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Plums
- 4 cups Mixed salad greens
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese
- 0.25 whole Red onion
- 0.5 cup Pecans
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the plums. Slice them into thin wedges, discarding the pits, and set them aside.
Wash and dry the mixed salad greens, then place them in a large salad bowl.
Crumble the feta cheese and thinly slice the red onion. Add these to the bowl with the greens.
Toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Once fragrant and lightly browned, let them cool and then add them to the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Arrange the sliced plums on top of the salad, then drizzle the honey-lime dressing evenly over the ingredients.
Gently toss the salad to combine all the flavors, or serve as is for a more composed presentation.
Divide the salad among four plates and serve immediately. Enjoy your vibrant and refreshing plum salad!
