Honey balsamic. Sprinkle some sunflower seeds on top for a crunch nutty taste, but you could swap those with hemp seeds, hazelnuts or your favorite small nut and it’ll taste equally as good. The only slightly complicated part of this recipe is making the balsamic honey dressing. It takes a bit of arm work to whisk the honey and vinegar together. You can opt for a food processor if you want (we did it the hard way by hand with a fork.) Otherwise, this all comes together quickly and if you’re anything like us, will probably be your favorite new lunch salad, too! Prep Time 20 minutes Additional Time 5 minutes Total Time 25 minutes Ingredients Bowl of wild Miner's Lettuce (size up to you!) 5-7 Chickweed plants 3-4 stalks of Wild Sorrel (stem and flowers) ¼ cup Sunflower Seeds 2 TBP Local Honey ½ cup Balsamic Vinegar 6-7 Fresh strawberries ½ cup fresh Ricotta Instructions How To Make The Balsamic Honey DressingIn a small bowl, mix the local honey and balsamic vinegar together.Use a fork to whisk it well until it's smooth.You can add more or less honey depending on your sweetness level. Miners Lettuce Salad RecipeWash your wild miner lettuce, chickweed and sorrel well and either pat dry or dry with a salad spinner. Chop the chickweed and sorrel into 1/4 inch sections (give or take).Slice strawberries thinly. In a bowl, add the miner's lettuce and chopped chickweed and sorrel.Sprinkle sunflower seeds on top. Add the sliced strawberries. Spoon in ricotta. I like the ricotta in big chunks, but Robin prefers to mask it up to cover the whole salad. It's up to you!Drizzle the balsamic honey over the salad and serve. Notes You can swap the sorrel for freshly squeezed lemon juice if you can't forage the sorrelJust like with all salads, feel free to add more or less of an ingredient (ie I always add more ricotta than Robin does to his bowl)
