Ingredients
– 8 cups mixed greens (such as spinach, arugula, and kale)
– 1 cup sliced cucumber
– 1/2 cup diced red onion
– 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
– 1/2 cup dried cranberries
– 1/4 cup toasted pecans or walnuts
Instructions
1. 1. In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, dried cranberries, and toasted nuts.
2. 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients until well combined.
3. 3. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the greens evenly.
