Blackberry Walnut Salad with Honey Vinaigrette:
Let’s chat about this salad. The base is made up of tender lettuce (fresh baby greens or butter leaf are my top two picks), then on top of that we place sweet summer blackberries, cucumber, honey crisp apples, diced mango, chopped walnuts, green onions and creamy feta! What a fantastic combo.
The Honey Vinaigrette:
This dressing can be whisked together in two minutes. I use Cobram Estates California Extra Virgin Olive Oil, apple cider vinegar and an orange blossom honey. Easy, quick, delicious and healthy!
Put it All Together and Wow!
Gorgeous color, loaded with antioxidants, fiber, and healthy fats, this salad just can’t get any better!
