A Salad That Stands Out
This vibrant salad combines bold flavors and satisfying textures. Start with 4 cups of mixed greens like arugula or spinach. Add thinly sliced cucumber, diced red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and chopped red onion. Top with crumbled feta or goat cheese for creaminess.
For extra crunch and sweetness, toss in toasted nuts and dried cranberries or cherries. Perfect as a side or main, this fresh, colorful dish is sure to impress.
