    In a large salad bowl, combine the spring mix, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber.

    Make the Pickled Red Onion

    Thinly slice the red onion and place it in a clean jar. In a small saucepan, combine apple cider vinegar, water, honey, and salt. Bring to a simmer until the honey dissolves. Pour the mixture over the onions in the jar and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to pickle.

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

    Once the pickled onions have marinated, add them to the salad bowl with the spring mix and vegetables. Drizzle the house vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
