Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups mixed salad greens (e.g., spinach, arugula, and romaine)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium orange bell pepper
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium cucumber
- 1 small red onion
- 1 large avocado
- 1 cup corn kernels (canned, fresh, or frozen and cooked)
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the mixed salad greens. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl.
Dice the orange and red bell peppers into bite-sized pieces and add them to the salad.
Peel the cucumber (if desired), slice it into thin rounds, and add it to the mix.
Thinly slice the red onion and toss it into the bowl.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully cube the flesh. Add it to the salad just before serving to prevent browning.
Add the corn kernels and crumbled feta cheese to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all ingredients evenly.
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
