Method

Preparation of Salad Base

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Greens

    Thoroughly wash the romaine lettuce and spinach under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a clean towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water. Tear the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Slice Vegetables

    Peel and slice the cucumber into thin rounds. Remove the seeds from the bell pepper, then cut it into strips or bite-sized pieces. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into cubes. Add all vegetables to the salad bowl with the greens.

Adding Toppings

  1. 3

    Add Toppings

    Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the salad bowl. Thinly slice the red onion and sprinkle it over the salad. Add the crumbled feta cheese and pumpkin seeds on top of the salad.

Making the Dressing

  1. 4

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Final Assembly

  1. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to combine all ingredients and ensure the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the salad immediately as a fresh side dish or a light main course. Enjoy your Ensalada Verde Grande!
