  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons agave syrup
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. To make the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk together. Dressing can be made up to 3 days in advance (although the cilantro will brown slightly).

  3. Whisk the dressing once more to combine then drizzle over the salad and serve.
