Fresh, Tangy & Addictive Salad Recipe

 

    • In a small bowl or mason jar, combine olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
    • Add red pepper flakes if you enjoy a bit of spice.
    • Whisk or shake until fully emulsified and smooth.
  • Taste and adjust: add more lemon for tang, honey for sweetness, or salt for depth.

3. Toss & Serve

    • Right before serving, pour about half of the dressing over the salad.
    • Gently toss with salad tongs or clean hands, making sure everything is coated.
    • Add more dressing if needed.
    • Let the salad sit for 5–10 minutes so the flavors can meld.
    • Serve fresh, crisp, and cool.

Why This Salad Stands Out

    • Bright and Zesty: The dressing’s acidity cuts through the richness of the cheese and nuts.
    • Satisfying Crunch: Toasted nuts and fresh vegetables provide texture in every bite.
    • Beautifully Balanced: Sweet, salty, tangy, and savory elements all come together seamlessly.
  • Completely Customizable: Add grilled chicken, tofu, shrimp, or even quinoa to make it a complete meal.
