Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Rinse the mixed greens thoroughly and dry them using a salad spinner or paper towels. Cut the cucumber into thin slices, slice the red onion into thin rings, and grate or julienne the carrot.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes (halved), cucumber slices, red onion, and carrots. Toss gently to mix.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese and Dressing

    Sprinkle the feta cheese over the salad. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a side dish or chilled.
