This vibrant and flavorful Spicy Green Salad is the perfect way to add some excitement to your lunch or dinner routine. Packed with fresh greens, crisp vegetables, and a homemade spicy dressing, this salad is sure to tantalize your taste buds.
The beauty of this salad lies in its versatility. Feel free to customize the ingredients to your liking. Don't like jalapenos? Swap them for red pepper flakes for a milder heat. Want to add some protein? Grilled chicken or crumbled tofu would be delicious additions.
Ingredients
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeno.
- In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, rice vinegar, sriracha, garlic clove, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.
- Garnish with crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh cilantro (optional).
- Serve immediately.
- Tips:
- For a more flavorful salad, you can grill the red bell pepper slices before adding them to the salad.
- If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute it with chopped parsley.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, the dressing may become watery, so it's best to prepare the dressing fresh for the best flavor.
