Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 1 medium avocado
- 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 medium red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
Wash and dry the baby spinach thoroughly, and place it in a large salad bowl.
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut it into thin slices or cubes.
Halve the cherry tomatoes. If they are particularly large, you can quarter them instead.
Thinly slice the red onion into small half-moon shapes.
Add the avocado, cherry tomatoes, and red onion slices to the bowl of spinach.
To prepare the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until fully combined.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together, making sure the avocado pieces aren't smushed in the process.
If using, sprinkle the salad with crumbled feta cheese for added flavor and creaminess.
Serve immediately as a light appetizer or side dish.
