Kitchen Sink Salad

I love salads, especially ones that are loaded with a ton of ingredients. I made this salad around the time when we had a romaine lettuce shortage, due to a recall. So. I opted for a cabbage mix, and I may say that it was an accidental, delicious discovery. 

With the crunch of the cabbage, sweetness from the currants, creaminess from the avocado, and tanginess from the dressing, this is a perfect go-to dinner! I served this salad with my dijon salmon, but you can use any protein of choice. 

Salad Ingredients:

  • 1 cabbage salad mix (the kind you use for coleslaw)
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup currants
  • 1/2 cucumber, diced
  • Feta cheese sprinkle, optional

Dressing Ingredients:

  • 1/2 olive oil
  • Juice of one lime
  • 2 TB red wine vinegar 
  • 2 TB dijon mustard
  • Dash of black pepper

In a large mixing bowl add all the ingredients for the salad. Here I added everything, but kept the feta on the side. For the dressing, whisk everything together, then pour over the salad, or reserve to serve on the side.
