Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Mixed salad greens (e.g., romaine, spinach, arugula)
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 0.25 medium Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the mixed salad greens. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion into rings. Add these vegetables to the salad greens.
In a small bowl or mason jar, prepare the honey mustard dressing by combining honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the dressing together until fully emulsified, or if using a mason jar, seal the lid tightly and shake vigorously until combined.
Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad greens and vegetables. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly with the dressing.
Serve immediately as a fresh and flavorful side dish. Optionally, garnish with additional toppings like nuts, seeds, or croutons for extra texture.
