Method
Preparing the Salad
Wash and Prepare Greens
Thoroughly wash the mixed salad greens under cold water. Spin dry in a salad spinner or pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Place the greens in a large salad bowl.
Add Vegetables
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl. Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and then slice it into half-moons. Add the cucumber to the salad bowl. Peel and julienne the carrot, then add it to the bowl. Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the salad.
Toss the Salad
Gently toss all the ingredients in the salad bowl until evenly mixed.
Making the Dressing
Combine Ingredients
In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.
Dress the Salad
Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to coat the salad lightly with the dressing.
