A beautiful, seasonal, and healthy salad with a unique twist!

Ingredients

DRESSING:

  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tsp. raw honey or pure maple syrup

SALAD:

  • 1 Tbsp. sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1 Tbsp. roasted natural almond butter (just almonds + salt in the ingredients list. I like a coarsely ground variety here)
  • 1 handful mixed greens
  • 2 medium roasted beets, diced
  • Goat cheese, optional

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and honey/maple syrup. Set aside.
  2. Toast the almonds: Place the sliced almonds in a dry, small saucepan over medium-low heat. Toast until fragrant and slightly browned. Set aside.
  3. Assemble the salad: Place the mixed greens in a bowl, and toss with 1/2 Tbsp. of the dressing. Store the remaining dressing in the fridge for future use.
  4. Spread almond butter on the bottom of your plate. Place the mixed greens on top, followed by the sliced almonds, beets, and optional goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper if desired.

Notes
