Early Summer Salad

Ingredients

2 cups leafy greens, such as baby spinach or arugula

2 cups dandelion leaves, washed and drained

1 tomato, diced

1/2 cup diced cucumber (remove seeds)

4 green onions, chopped

A few leaves of basil, chopped

1/2 cup nuts, chopped

1 cup fresh raspberries, strawberries or dried cranberries

2 hardboiled eggs, sliced (skip the eggs for a vegan-friendly option)

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 cup strawberry vinegar

2 tsp Dijon mustard

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 Tbsp honey (if you’re vegan, try agave nectar instead)

A pinch of salt and pepper

Directions

Combine all salad ingredients in a bowl. Whisk dressing ingredients together, and serve over salad. This is a perfect meal to eat out on the patio, with some soft buttered bread and a glass of wine.
