Simple & Tasty Prosciutto, Avocado, Greens, & Feta Salad

I created this simple and tasty salad to accompany a flat bread pizza I made for a family dinner. I initially planned to make a terrific-sounding fresh fig and prosciutto salad I found on-line at https://www.purewow.com/recipes/prosciutto-fig-salad-board. However, when I couldn't get fresh figs, I ended up changing four of the major ingredients. This recipe serves four, but can easily be scaled up or down.

Ingredients
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/3 cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- Kosher salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
- 6 ounces mixed arugula, watercress, kale & spinach (Publix sells this mixture)
- 2 ripe avocados, sliced. (There are great on-line videos for avocado-slicing techniques.)
- 3-4 ounces of thinly slide prosciutto torn into pieces
- 2 tbsps chopped sweet peppers (Publix sells a chopped sweet pepper mixture.)
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Preparation
1. Stir lemon juice, EVOO, mustard, salt, & pepper in a small bowl.

2. Place greens on a salad board.

3. Top greens with avocado, prosciutto, peppers, and feta

4. Set bowl of dressing next to salad for diners' use.
