Direction
Step 1: Prepare the Salad
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cucumber, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Toss lightly to mix.
Step 2: Arrange the Smoked Turkey
Arrange the smoked turkey breast slices on top of the salad, or roll them up and place them around the salad bowl for a more elegant presentation.
Step 3: Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 4: Dress the Salad
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle the walnuts or almonds over the top for a nice crunch (optional), and serve immediately.
Note
For a more filling meal, you can add slices of avocado, hard-boiled eggs, or your choice of cheese to the salad. The smoky flavour of the turkey pairs wonderfully with the fresh vegetables and tangy dressing!
