For the Salad:

• 4 cups mixed salad greens (spinach, arugula, and watercress)
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup cucumber, sliced
• 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn

For the Honey Lemon Vinaigrette:

• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Cherry City Honey’s raw honey

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Salad Greens: In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, and torn mint leaves. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
