1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

Juice of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon honey

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Zucchini: Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, create long, thin ribbons of zucchini. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

    Prep the Carrot and Bell Pepper: Similarly, create ribbons from the carrot and add them to the bowl. Toss in the sliced red bell pepper for a pop of color and crunch.

      Mix In Other Vegetables: Add the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced red onion into the bowl. Gently mix to combine all the vegetables.

        Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper until well blended.

          Combine Dressing with Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to ensure all ribbons and veggies are coated.

            Add Feta and Walnuts: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and walnuts over the top. Add the torn basil leaves for a fresh touch.

              Serve: Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Optionally, garnish with extra basil leaves and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy your refreshing Zucchini Ribbons & Citrus Delight Salad!
