Easy Summer Salad Recipe

Introducing our delightful Summer Medley Salad, a perfect blend of vibrant and nutritious ingredients that capture the essence of the season. This salad begins with a bed of fresh rocket and lettuce, offering a peppery and crisp base that sets the stage for a burst of flavors. Juicy cherry tomatoes, bursting with sweetness, add a pop of color and freshness. Vibrant bell peppers, sliced into thin strips, contribute a satisfying crunch and a touch of mild sweetness. Spring onions bring a subtle zing, complementing the overall flavor profile.

But the star of the show is the creamy and buttery avocado, perfectly ripe and sliced into smooth, velvety pieces that melt in your mouth. Its rich texture pairs flawlessly with the other ingredients, adding a luxurious touch to the salad. As you delve deeper into the medley, you’ll discover the satisfying crunch of cashew nuts, adding a delightful nuttiness and a satisfying texture to each bite.

To balance the flavors, tangy and creamy feta cheese is crumbled over the top, imparting a savory and slightly salty note that complements the fresh ingredients. The combination of these ingredients creates a harmonious symphony of flavors, textures, and colors.
