Why you’ll love it:
It’s sweet, savory, and refreshing with a punch of protein—perfect for those garden-fresh summer vibes.
Ingredients:

4 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, etc.)
2 oz goat cheese, crumbled
¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil

Fresh basil, chopped
Salt + pepper to taste
