Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (about the juice of one small lemon)
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Artichoke Salad

  • 4 cups salad spring mix
  • 2 cups thinly sliced English cucumber (about half a large cucumber) (or 2-3 Persian cucumbers)
  • 1 large tomato, cut into bite-size wedges

  • 3 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Red Wine Vinaigrette

  1. Add the lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk to combine ingredients and dissolve the salt.
  3. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking until glossy and lightly thickening. There should be no pools of olive oil.
  4. Place aside.

Marinated Artichoke Salad

  2. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the ingredients and give a light toss before serving.

Notes

 

Meal Prep

  • Start by washing and chopping all the vegetables and store them in airtight containers in the fridge. I recommend lining the bottom of the container with paper towels to absorb any excess liquid or moisture.
  • Next, prepare the red wine vinaigrette and place it into a jar with a lid. Store the jar in the fridge until you can serve the salad.
  • When ready to serve the artichoke salad, place the greens into a bowl, add your prepped vegetables, drizzle with the dressing, toss everything together, and serve.

 

How to Serve

Toss the ingredients and drizzle the light vinaigrette dressing over everything. For added flavor, sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and toasted pine nuts before serving. Enjoy this refreshing and flavorful salad as a side dish or light meal.

How to Store

Place the artichoke salad in an airtight container lined with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. This will help keep the salad fresh for longer in the refrigerator. Additionally, avoid dressing the salad until ready to eat to prevent wilting. Good for 1-2 days.
