Fresh Harvest Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette
You will need:
2 cups of freshly harvested lettuce
1 cup of cherry tomatoes
1 cucumber
1/4 cup of feta cheese
1/4 cup of olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon of honey
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by thoroughly washing your freshly harvested lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Make sure to dry them well to avoid a soggy salad
- Chop your lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Slice your cherry tomatoes in half for a burst of flavor with each bite, and cut your cucumber into thin slices for a refreshing crunch
- Combine your chopped lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and cucumbers in a large salad bowl. Toss them gently to mix the colors and flavors
- Crumble your feta cheese over the top of your salad. The tangy feta will complement the fresh vegetables perfectly
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together your olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and honey. Add salt and pepper to taste. This homemade lemon vinaigrette will bring a bright, tangy flavor to your salad
- Finally, drizzle your homemade dressing over the salad. Toss the salad again to ensure every leaf and slice is coated in the delicious dressing
