Step-by-Step Instructions for Easter Spring Mix Salad
- Start by heating a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the walnuts and toast them for about 5 minutes until they are fragrant and lightly browned. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning; you want a nice golden hue. Once toasted, remove them from the skillet and let them cool completely.
- In a blender, combine ¼ cup of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, 3 tablespoons of blueberries, 1 tablespoon of monk fruit powder, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the juice of half a lemon. Blend all ingredients for 30 to 45 seconds until you reach a smooth consistency.
- In a large mixing bowl, add a generous amount of spring mix. Toss in the toasted walnuts, the remaining blueberries, and crumble the goat cheese on top. Give everything a gentle stir to combine the components harmoniously.
- Right before serving, pour the homemade blueberry dressing over the salad mixture. Use just enough dressing to coat the greens without drowning them; start with half, and adjust to your preference.
- Once dressed, serve your Easter Spring Mix Salad immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes
To maintain freshness, store any leftover salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, keeping the dressing separate until ready to serve. The assembled salad is not recommended for freezing but the blueberry dressing can be frozen for up to 1 month.
