Ingredients
- ⅓ cup champagne vinegar

Instructions
- Combine vinegar, olive oil, and lemon verbena leaves in a blender. Blend on high until leaves are pureed into the vinaigrette. (If you don't have a high-powered blender like the Vitamix, you may want to strain the dressing through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.)
- Divide greens onto 4 plates.
- Top each with ½ cup of berries and sprinkle with sunflower seeds.
- Drizzle vinaigrette over the salad. (There might be extra—don't feel like you need to use it all!)
Notes
- My strawberries were from the garden, so they were on the small side. If you're using larger ones, you'll need to quarter or halve them.
