Serves 4.
Salad:
Wash in-season garden greens (e.g.,
baby spinach, arugula), and red-leaf or dark leaf lettuce, (iceberg
lettuce also works). Rip/cut lettuce into bite size sections. Cut
cucumber width-length into very thin slices.
Juice a quarter lemon, and zest the skin of the mandarin orange
(if using). Combine with other vinaigrette ingredients. Stir
well.
Add sesame seeds, cucumber, and asian vinaigrette to salad. Toss.
Garnish with seasonal fruit
slivers (organic apples or mandarin oranges) and avocado (optional).
Enjoy!
