Fresh and Flavorful Farmer's Market Salad Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
1
  • 2 cups mixed greens (use a variety for best flavor)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup cucumber, diced (peeled if desired)
  • 1 cup bell pepper, diced (any color)
  • 1 cup red onion, thinly sliced (soak in water to reduce sharpness)
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional for flavor)
  • 1 cup olive oil (for dressing)
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (for dressing)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Greens

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens as the base of the salad.

    Use a mix of leafy greens for varied texture and flavor.
  2. Add Vegetables

    Add the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion to the greens.

  4. Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

    Adjust the vinegar based on your taste preference.
  5. Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
