Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups kale and spinach roughly chopped
  • 1 each avocado sliced thinly
  • 1 small cucumber thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 tablespoons honey raw or regular
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds toasted
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • a pinch sea salt

Equipment

  • Chef's Knife
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring spoons and cups

Method
 

  1. Gather all your greens and chop them into manageable bite-sized pieces, then place them in a large mixing bowl. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a towel or salad spinner to keep everything crisp.
  2. Slice the avocado thinly and set aside. Thinly slice the cucumber for a cool, crunchy texture that complements the greens.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, honey, and a pinch of sea salt until the dressing is smooth and slightly bubbly from the emulsification.
  4. Pour the dressing over the chopped greens, then gently toss with tongs or salad spoons to evenly coat all the leaves. The greens should start to glisten and wilt slightly from the dressing.
  5. Add the sliced avocado and cucumber to the greens, folding them in gently to avoid bruising the delicate slices.
  6. Sprinkle the toasted sunflower seeds over the top for a crunchy finish, distributing evenly across the salad.
  7. Let the salad sit for about 5–10 minutes to allow flavors to meld and greens to absorb some of the dressing’s brightness.
  8. Give the salad one last gentle toss, check for seasoning, and adjust with more lemon or salt if needed.
  9. Serve immediately in bowls, enjoying the crisp greens, creamy avocado, and tangy dressing in every bite.

Notes

Feel free to customize with other nuts, seeds, or veggies based on what you have on hand. Using fresh lemon juice really brightens the entire dish.
