Ingredients
For the Balsamic Dressing:
- 1/2 cup olive oil extra virgin
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard creamy
- 1 large garlic clove grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the Salad:
- 5 ounces spring mix
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese grated
Instructions
- In a small bowl, add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, grated garlic, salt, pepper and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add spring mix, add half of the salad dressing and half of Parmesan cheese, then gently toss.
- Spread tomatoes on top and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese. You may drizzle with more salad dressing or refrigerate leftovers for another time.
- Serve immediately or within an hour.
Notes
- Make ahead: You can make the dressing for up to 2 weeks in advance and refrigerate. Also cut up tomatoes and grated cheese can be refrigerated in separate containers for 2 days and 2 weeks respectively.
- Assemble salad right before serving. It is best to enjoy immediately as spring mix wilts quickly.
