Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Pistachio Spring Salad
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, combine 2 tablespoons of honey and 2 tablespoons of white sugar. Stir continuously until the mixture is fully dissolved and starts to bubble, about 2-3 minutes. Add 1 cup of pistachios, and keep stirring for another 1-2 minutes until the pistachios are well-coated and toasted. Remove from heat and spread them on parchment paper to cool.
- While the pistachios are cooling, take a large bowl or platter and add 5 ounces of spring mix salad greens. Follow this with 6 ounces of chopped butter lettuce, gently tossing to combine.
- Next, layer in the thinly sliced watermelon radish, creamy avocado, and sharp red onion. Scatter a generous handful of blueberries and pomegranate arils over the top. Finally, add the cooled candied pistachios.
- Crumble 2 ounces of feta cheese over the salad, enhancing its creamy texture. Drizzle with creamy pomegranate dressing.
- Optionally, sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over the top just before serving. Serve immediately to enjoy fresh textures.

Notes
For best flavor, enjoy immediately and keep the dressing separate until serving.
