instructions
    1

    Begin by washing all your vegetables under cold water. Ensure they are clean and free of dirt.

    2

    In a large bowl, add 4 cups of mixed greens as your base.

    3

    Slice 1 cherry tomato in half and scatter it over the greens. Repeat with the remaining tomatoes.

    4

    Dice 1 bell pepper and add it to the bowl for a splash of color.

    5

    Chop 1 cucumber into bite-sized pieces and toss it into the salad.

    6

    Grate 1 carrot and mix it in for sweetness and crunch.

    7

    Finely shred 2 cups of red cabbage and add it for flavor and texture.

    8

    Thinly slice 1 cup of radish to add a peppery bite and sprinkle it across the top.

    9

    Cut 1 avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully slice into pieces. Use a spoon to scoop it into the salad.

    10

    In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. This will be your dressing.

    11

    Drizzle the dressing over your colorful salad and toss everything gently to coat evenly.

    12

    Let the salad sit for 5 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together.
