Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar and diced shallot. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

02

Step

Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while continuously whisking, creating a beautifully emulsified vinaigrette. Set aside. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, gently combine the mixed greens and sliced cucumbers. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the red wine vinaigrette over the greens and cucumbers, tossing lightly to ensure even coating. Be careful not to overdress the salad. (Prep time: 1 minute)

05

Step

Add the hulled strawberries to the salad and toss very gently to combine. (Prep time: 1 minute)

06

Step

Just before serving, sprinkle the salad with a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavors. (Prep time: <1 minute)

07

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy the taste of summer.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a handful of toasted almonds or pecans.
If you don't have red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar or white wine vinegar can be substituted.
To prevent the salad from becoming soggy, dress it just before serving.
Feel free to add feta cheese for a savory twist.
