monochromatic greens

I found this recipe on A Pinch of Yum and had to share it with you! For our polish Easter dinner with friends we were asked to bring a salad. This salad was a huge hit so I imagine it will be making its way back to our table again soon. Maybe with some shrimp next time!

8c spring mix

1.5c pea shoots

1c low fat crumbled feta

2 avocados, cubed

3/4c almonds, chopped

1/2 a jalapeño, seeds removed

3/4c Greek yogurt

1T lime juice

1/4c evoo

1/2t salt

1T honey

4 cloves of garlic

2 scallions

1/2c packed cilantro

 

In a large salad bowl, combine spring mix, pea shoots, feta, avocado, and almonds. Set aside.

In your Nutribullet, combine jalapeño, yogurt, lime juice, evoo, salt, honey, garlic, and scallions. Blend until smooth. Add cilantro and only blend until you have small green flecks in the dressing.

Toss dressing with salad and serve immediately. This made a great side for sausage and perogies but I imagine it would be a very versatile salad.
