Equipment

Ingredients

For the Salad

2 small heads romaine lettuce
2 cups packed baby spinach
2 Persian cucumbers sliced
4 green onions sliced
4 large radishes slices
1 avocado diced
¼ cup toasted pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds

For the Dressing

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

Place the salad ingredients in a large bowl or divided into 4 bowls.
Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl or jar. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve immediately after tossing.

Notes

Storage: If you're going to store this salad, make sure it's undressed—otherwise, it'll get very soggy! The chopped lettuce and veggies will last for a couple of days in an airtight container in the fridge. You can make the dressing up to 5 days ahead.
