For me, there’s nothing better than Mexican food. There’s just something about the flavors and brightness that I can’t get enough of. However, a massive burrito or enchilada is not always ideal. That’s why I came up with this light salad filled with Mexican flavors and fresh vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
For the vinaigrette:
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ¾ cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the salad:
- 1 head romaine lettuce, cleaned and chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup radish, thinly sliced
- 1 avocado, seeded and roughly chopped
- ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
- ½ jalapeño, seeded and minced
- ½ medium-sized jicama, cut into ½-inch cubes
- ¼ bunch of cilantro, leaves removed
DIRECTIONS
For the vinaigrette:
In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, oregano, honey, and mustard. Whisk well to combine. Continue to whisk and in a slow and steady stream add the olive oil until fully incorporated. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
For the salad:
In a large salad bowl, combine all the ingredients. Add the vinaigrette and toss with salad tongs until thoroughly mixed.
