Recipe Modified from: ohmyveggies
Ingredients
  • ⅓ c. champagne vinegar
  • ⅓ c. extra-virgin olive oil
  • ⅓ c. lemon verbena leaves, loosely packed
  • 1 (5-ounce) package spring mix salad greens
  • 2 c. fresh berries (I used red and yellow strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries)
  • 2 tbsp. sunflower seeds
Instructions
  1. 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 of cheesecloth.)
  2. 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!).
