Instructions
-
In a jar, combine the red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, sugar, salt, dry mustard, and minced garlic. Shake well until blended to create a smooth dressing.
-
In a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sunflower seeds and sauté until golden brown, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
-
Once toasted, remove the seeds from the pan and let them cool on a plate.
-
While the seeds cool, prepare the remaining ingredients: tear the lettuce, chop the green onions, and drain the mandarin oranges.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the torn lettuce, chopped green onions, mandarin oranges, and diced avocado.
-
Just before serving, add the cooled sunflower seeds to the salad mixture and toss everything together gently.
-
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss again to coat all ingredients evenly. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.
Enjoy the delightful blend of textures and flavors in this vibrant Committee Salad, perfect for any occasion!
