  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, corn kernels, and blanched broccoli.
  4. Slice the rested lamb into bite-sized pieces and add it to the salad.
  5. Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  6. Top with toasted sesame seeds and fresh dill before serving.
  7. For an added touch, garnish with avocado slices and cherry tomato halves.
