Optional Protein: Grilled chicken, chickpeas, or tofu (4 oz)
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1 teaspoon Honey or Maple Syrup (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey (if using), salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasonings to your liking.
Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the fresh greens, sliced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and thinly sliced red onion.
Add Fermented Veggies: Add the fermented vegetables to the bowl. If the fermented veggies are very wet, you might want to squeeze out some of the excess liquid before adding them to the salad.
Incorporate Protein (Optional): If you’re adding protein, such as grilled chicken, chickpeas, or tofu, add it to the bowl.
Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine. Be careful not to overdress, as the fermented veggies already add a lot of flavor.
