For the salad: Wash all greens thoroughly, and lightly dry with a towel. Coarsely chop all of the greens and add them to a large serving bowl along with the sunflower seed sprouts (or whatever spring sprouts you’ve got!). In a small skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil and add the rapini. Sauté on medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until just tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Mix in with the fresh greens. Top with nuts and/or seeds, and the shaved fennel bulb.
For the dressing: In a small glass jar, add the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, herbs and dijon mustard. Shake well until blended together and slightly thick. Drizzle over the salad, and enjoy!
