Fell in love with this place in north Houston called BellaGreen! I fell in love with this salad and had to recreate it! It’s now my favorite salad! If only someone would open one near me in south Houston! It’s a little prep but there are some shortcuts and you can prep extra to enjoy several salads!
On a large plate or bowl:
3 parts Spring mix
1 part Romaine mix (can just use spring mix)
Red onion sliced thin
Watermelon cubed (or buy it pre cut)
Goat cheese or feta - used approx 1 tbsp
1 cucumber peeled & spiraled thin save the leftovers for other salads. Used about 1/3 cucumber
Salt & fresh pepper top of salad
1 -2 tbsp Candied pecan pieces or almonds or walnuts (sugar or maple syrup heated on the stove with nuts. Allow to cool. Store in container.) or just use regular.
A few cherry tomatoes sliced in half
For the dressing:
1/4 cup fresh oj from orange
1 small lime or half Lemon squeezed
1 tbsp honey/agave/or maple syrup
1/8 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp coarse ground Pepper
1/4 tsp Garlic powder
1/4c olive oil
1/2 cup Prosecco vinegar or champagne vinegar
Place all ingredients into a small jar and shake to combine. Use 2 tbsp per salad. Dressing will separate which is kindof a pain 😆 Store in the fridge. It seems to last a week or two.
Optional a few fresh basil leaves and parsley leaves snipped with kitchen shears!
This is a lot of prep but you can prep extra and eat for a few days! It’s one of my all time favorites!!
