• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 0.25 medium Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar

• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and thoroughly dry the mixed salad greens. Place them in a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and halve the cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion into rings. Add these vegetables to the salad greens.

Step 3

In a small bowl or mason jar, prepare the honey mustard dressing by combining honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Whisk the dressing together until fully emulsified, or if using a mason jar, seal the lid tightly and shake vigorously until combined.

Step 5

Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad greens and vegetables. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly with the dressing.

Step 6

Serve immediately as a fresh and flavorful side dish. Optionally, garnish with additional toppings like nuts, seeds, or croutons for extra texture.
