These fresh, vibrant lettuce cups are the kind of dish that looks like it took serious effort but comes together in minutes with nothing more than a bowl and a whisk. Crisp butter lettuce cradles a tangle of broccoli sprouts, cool julienned cucumber, and creamy avocado, all tied together with a bright lime-ginger dressing that genuinely makes you want to eat your greens. The dressing is built on extra-virgin olive oil and fresh lime juice — no canola, no vegetable oil, no mystery blends — so you know exactly what's going into your body. That's the kind of clarity that's surprisingly hard to find in store-bought dressings and pre-made salads, where seed oils tend to sneak in under vague labels. A little raw honey and fresh ginger round out the flavor with warmth and subtle sweetness, and the optional pumpkin seeds add a satisfying crunch at the end. These cups are light enough to serve as a starter but filling enough to stand on their own for a clean, nourishing lunch.
