Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, or until they are golden and fragrant. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Set aside to cool.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and carefully scoop out the flesh using a spoon. Slice the avocado into thin wedges.
Cut the honeydew melon in half, remove the seeds, and use a melon baller or spoon to scoop out bite-sized pieces.
Crumble the feta cheese into small chunks and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Arrange the mixed salad greens evenly across plates or a large serving platter.
Distribute the honeydew melon pieces and avocado slices evenly over the greens.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top, followed by the toasted pine nuts.
Drizzle the salad with the prepared dressing just before serving.
