Simple Salad with Sunny Vinaigrette


This is the perfect light, delicious summery salad.

For Salad:
6 cups Spring Mix salad greens
1/2 cup slice cucumber
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
2 vine-ripened tomatoes, sliced
2 small carrots, sliced
3 pink radishes, sliced

For dressing:
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh oregano, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Place salad greens in a large bowl, top with other veggies. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon, salt and pepper, oregano and garlic. Whisking constantly, slowly add olive oil in a thin stream. Add more lemon juice, salt or pepper as necessary to adjust flavor to your liking. Drizzle dressing over salad and serve.
