Everyday Green Salad

Recipe by gingham

Crisp greens with a mustardy vinaigrette you'll want on everything. Make a jar and keep it in the fridge door.

Ingredients

Dressing

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped shallot
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • Black pepper

Salad

  • 8 cups mixed greens (about 5 oz)
  • 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup toasted sunflower seeds

Method

  1. Put the dressing ingredients in a jar, close it, and shake until creamy.

  2. Just before serving, toss the greens and cucumber with enough dressing to coat them lightly. Add more to taste.

  3. Scatter the sunflower seeds on top.

Notes from the source

The dressing keeps for a week in the fridge. Shake it again before using.
