- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
Clean the cremini mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them into even pieces.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.
While sautéing, mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet with the mushrooms for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking. Stir to incorporate.
Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly and place them in a large salad bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion; add both to the salad bowl.
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Add the sautéed mushrooms to the salad bowl.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss everything gently to combine.
Serve immediately with an additional sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
