    Slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons. In a bowl, combine the cucumber slices with a pinch of salt and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, marinated cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion. Crumble the ricotta salata over the top.

  4. 4

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Finish with Bread Crumbs
