Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the mixed greens thoroughly under cold water. Shake off excess water or use a salad spinner to dry them. Chop the tomato into bite-sized pieces, slice the cucumber into thin rounds, and slice the red onion thinly.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens, chopped tomato, sliced cucumber, and sliced red onion. Toss gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Season the Salad

    Sprinkle salt and pepper over the salad mixture to taste. Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the top.

  4. 4

    Toss the Salad

    Using salad tongs or your hands, gently toss the salad to evenly coat the greens and vegetables with the dressing and seasonings.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to individual plates or serve directly from the bowl. Enjoy as a refreshing side dish with your meal.
