Blueberry Salad With Lemon Vinaigrette
Ingredients
Instructions
Slice the cucumbers and avocado. (How thick they’re sliced is up to you, but I slice my cucumbers fairly thin.)
In a large bowl, assemble the spring mix or greens of your choice, the fresh blueberries, the cucumber, the avocado, and the feta.
Mince the garlic.
In a small bowl, add the lemon juice, the red wine vinegar, the extra virgin olive oil, the honey, the garlic, the oregano, the salt, and the pepper. Combine by whisking with a fork.
Pour the desired amount of dressing over the salad.
Top with almonds and serve!
This salad is perfect for the summer. Light and simple, it’s a versatile side dish — and a great meal all on its own!
