Blitz your Macadamia’s in the blender, remove and place in a bowl to the side.

To make the green salad you need a sharp knife and take your time to get everything cut finely. Cut your mint, dill, spring onion, kale and spinach and place into a bowl. The basil is best left whole, just pull the basil leaves off the stems and place into the bowl.

Pour your dressing over the top as close as you can to serving, toss and then sprinkle your macadamias over the top
Notes
Note 1: People often go wrong with this salad dressing balancing the flavours. Every time you make it you should balance it as the ingredients can vary in size; lemons can be sour or sweet. You need to balance the salt, acid and sweetness.

Balancing something means taste testing it a see if it need more salt, more sweetness, more acidity
