How to Make Summer Time Salad With Laura's Vinaigrette
- **Make the Vinaigrette:** In a blender, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- **Chill the Vinaigrette:** Refrigerate the vinaigrette for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- **Prep the Vegetables:** While the vinaigrette chills, wash and chop 1 cup cucumber, 1/2 cup red onion, and 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes.
- **Optional Marinade:** (For enhanced flavor) Place the chopped cucumbers, red onion, and tomatoes in a bowl. Pour 1/4 cup of the chilled vinaigrette over the vegetables and gently toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- **Assemble the Salad:** Add 5 oz mixed greens to a large bowl. Add the marinated (or unmarinated) vegetables.
- **Dress and Serve:** Just before serving, add the remaining vinaigrette to the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy!
