Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Dry it using a salad spinner or by patting it with a clean kitchen towel. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl. Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and then chop it into half-moon shapes. Add these pieces to the salad bowl. Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the mix.

Adding Toppings

  1. 3

    Add Cheese and Olives

    Sprinkle the feta cheese over the top of the salad. Add the olives around the salad for an extra burst of flavor.

  2. 4

    Include Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Cut the avocado into slices or cubes and add them to the salad.

Making the Dressing

  1. 5

    Mix the Dressing

    In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the ingredients are well blended.

Serving the Salad

  1. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss everything gently to combine and serve immediately.
