Healthy Avocado, Lettuce and Walnut Salad with Mustard and Honey Dressing

Healthy Vegetarian Salad with Creamy Honey Dressing

This salad is one of my favorites and it’s easy to make. You can enjoy this salad as a meal on its own, or serve it as a starter. 

It’s also possible to add baked chicken chunks, croutons, and parmesan or to use vegan mayo if you are looking for a 100% vegan salad. A creamy mustard and honey dressing ties all the vegetables together!
