Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the apple-wood smoked bacon until crispy. Remove from the pan and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat. Once cooled, chop into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables and Herbs

    Dice the tomato and cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut into cubes. Roughly chop the cilantro and set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, diced tomato, cucumber, avocado, crumbled feta cheese, chopped cilantro, black olives, and chopped bacon. Add the pumpkin seeds for a crunchy texture.

Lime Vinaigrette Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl or jar, combine the lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together or shake the jar until well mixed.

  2. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Pour the lime vinaigrette over the assembled salad. Toss gently to ensure all ingredients are coated with the dressing.
