Actually the best side salad you will ever make. It's crunchy, tangy, full of flavor, and can be made ahead. Bring this to the next dinner party you join!

1avocadocut into cubes or slices

Instructions
For THE Dressing
Combine all of the ingredients in a mason jar and shake until homogenous. You can also whisk them together vigorously in a bowl if you don't have a jar on hand.
For the Crunch Mix
Combine all nuts and seeds in a small bowl and try not to just eat it.
Salad
Toss the greens, crunch mix, a pinch of salt, and as much salad dressing as you'd like in a large bowl.
Top with avocado and fresh dill and enjoy.
Notes
Dressing will keep in the fridge for a few days! Maybe even a week but it hasn't lasted that long in my fridge.Use whatever nuts and seeds you have at home. I always prefer unsalted so that the finished salad isn't overly salted.
