  1. To make the dressing, combine the apple cider vinegar and lemon. Slowly whisk in the olive oil in a steady stream. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Toast the seeds separately in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Watching carefully and stirring often, making sure to not burn them. Once lightly toasted, remove seeds from heat and set aside to cool.
  3. To make the salad, combine all the remaining ingredients in a large salad bowl. Add the cooled seeds and the dressing and toss.
  4. If you want to make this salad for multiple meals, make sure to reserve some salad un-tossed so the dressing doesn't make the salad soggy.
