Ingredients

  • 6 cups of mixed greens
  • large red pepper
  • 1/2 a cucumber
  • medium orange
  • pint of blackberries
  • 1/4 cup of pepitas
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta
  • balsamic dressing
  • handfull of arugula optional

Instructions

  • First up, wash all of your fruits and veggies. Then, in a large bowl toss the mixed greens in the balsamic dressing. You can make your own (1 part balsamic to 1.5 parts olive oil, then add salt, pepper, oregano and garlic to taste), or you can use your favourite vinaigrette dressing.
  • Once the mixed greens are dressed, you can lay them out on a flat serving tray. I like to do this so the star ingredients shine. Having a salad in a bowl without much surface area isn’t as pretty as laying it out.
  • Next, dice the red pepper and the cucumber. Then section off the orange and cut into 1/2 inch pieces and cut the blackberries in half – either way works. Then, disperse over the the mixed greens. Add the pepitas and the feta to the salad, then top with a handful of micro arugula for some extra bite if you wish.
  • Then, eat up!
