Spicy Olive Superfood Salad

Ingredients

  • - FOR THE SALAD -
  • 6 cups salad greens; spinach, arugula, kale, or mixed greens
  • 3/4 cup fresh blueberries, washed
  • 3/4 cup fresh raspberries, washed
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
  • 3/4 cup walnuts, chopped & toasted
  • - FOR THE DRESSING -
  • 3/4 cup The Spicy Olive's Extra Virgin Olive Oil, or The Spicy Olive's Lemon Olive Oil
  • 2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon The Spicy Olive's Champagne & Roasted Garlic Mustard
  • 3/4 cup The Spicy Olive's Wild Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: For the Salad: Place salad greens in a large serving bowl.  Top with berries, avocado, and red onion.

Step 2: For the Dressing: Place mustard into a small mixing bowl.  Add blueberry balsamic and whisk together.  Slowly drizzle the olive oil into the balsamic mixture, whisking constantly until olive oil and balsamic are completely mixed & dressing begins to thicken.  If you used The Spicy Olive’s Lemon Olive Oil you may not need the lemon zest.  If you used a single varietal olive oil, add the lemon zest and whisk to incorporate.

Step 3: Pour the salad dressing over the prepared salad greens and toss to evenly coat.  Top salad with walnuts and serve.
