Refreshing Fruit & Mint Salad

Ingredients:

• Green leaf lettuce, 2 handfuls

• Peppermint leaves, fresh, 2-4 tbsp.

• Cucumber, 1 small

• Kiwis, 2 OR blueberries, 1 handful OR raspberries, 1 handful OR orange, 1 big

• Pecan nuts, chopped, 2 tbsp

• Olive oil, 1 tbsp

Instructions:

Wash and thoroughly dry the green leaf lettuce. Tear it into bite-sized pieces and place them in a salad bowl.

Slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons. Prepare your choice of fruit:

• If using kiwis: Peel and slice or dice them.

• If using an orange: Peel, segment, and roughly chop.

• If using berries (blueberries or raspberries): Gently wash and pat them dry.

Toss the cucumber, your chosen fruit, and the fresh peppermint leaves into the bowl with the lettuce.

Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the salad. Toss gently to coat, then top with the chopped pecan nuts for a satisfying, buttery crunch.
