Ingredients

  • 1 cup of mixed greens no spinach
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup cucumber chopped
  • 1/4 cup basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives chopped
  • 1 teaspoon toasted pine nuts
  • 1 tablespoon green onions thinly sliced

Dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

Instructions

  • Layer mixed greens, tomatoes, cucumber, basil, olives, pine nuts, and green onions in a bowl.
  • Whisk olive oil, tahini, and vinegar until smooth.  Drizzle over salad

Notes

If meal prepping and increasing the yield of the dressing, we do not recommend making in a food processor as this will result in a much thicker dressing. Instead, we recommend whisking the dressing together.
Variations:
Additional protein option: Add 2 ounces (1/2 can) albacore tuna, drained and flaked
No white vinegar: Substitute red wine vinegar
