Step 1
Trim the 8 oz okra and slice into 1/2 inch rounds. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add okra, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Step 2
Halve the 1 cup cherry tomatoes. In a large bowl, combine the 4 cups lettuce, cooked okra, and tomatoes.
Step 3
In a small jar, shake together the 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until emulsified.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.
