Ingredients
  

4 cups watermelon radish, thinly sliced

2 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, or your choice)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped

1/4 cup olive oil

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1/4 cup walnuts or pistachios, chopped for added crunch

Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables: Begin by washing the watermelon radish thoroughly. Using a sharp knife or mandoline, thinly slice the radish into rounds. If the rounds are large, you may want to cut them in half or quarters for easier eating.

    Mix the Greens: In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens and the sliced watermelon radish. Gently toss them together to mix.

      Add More Veggies: Incorporate the halved cherry tomatoes and thinly sliced red onion into the bowl. Toss the mixture lightly to distribute the ingredients evenly.

        Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

          Combine Everything: Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to ensure that the greens and vegetables are well coated with the dressing.

            Finish with Feta & Mint: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped mint leaves over the top of the salad. If desired, add chopped walnuts or pistachios for an extra crunch.

              Serve: Serve immediately as a refreshing side dish or a light lunch option. Enjoy the vibrant colors and flavors!
