Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the salad base

    In a large bowl, add the mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion. Toss gently to combine.

  2. 2

    Add toppings

    Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese, sliced olives, and sunflower seeds (or walnuts) over the salad base. Toss lightly to distribute the toppings evenly.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 4

    Dress the salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
