Ingredients
- 1 head romaine lettuce roughly chopped
- 3 ripe clementines peeled and separated
- 2 ripe avocado peeled and sliced
- ¼ cup roasted cashews or roasted peanuts/walnuts
- 2 Persian cucumbers sliced
- 4 large eggs room temperature
Salad Dressing
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or any neutral oil
- 2 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon mustard liquid not powdered mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 2 cloves garlic grated
- ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a small pot filled with hot water, bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Carefully lower room temperature eggs and boil for 7-8 minutes for a soft-yolk that isn't overly runny. For hard-boiled eggs, boil for 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool down before cracking and peeling them with the back of a spoon to help you. Slice them into halves or bite-size pieces.
- In a large bowl, add chopped lettuce, separated clementines, sliced avocados, cashews, and sliced cucumbers. Top the salad off with the cooked eggs.
- In a small bowl, combine salad dressing ingredients with a whisk. Pour as much as you'd like over your salad and enjoy!
