Green Goddess Salad by Baked By Melissa

Prep Time:10 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

Salad

  • 1 small head green cabbage
  • 3-4 baby cucumbers (or 1 large cucumber)
  • 1/4 cup chives
  • 1 bunch scallions (green onion)

Dressing

  • 1 cup basil leaves
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 small shallot
  • 2 lemons, juiced
  • 1/4 cup high quality olive oil
  • 1/4 cup nuts of your choice Melissa uses raw, unsalted cashews and walnuts
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • any extra chives you have on hand optional

Instructions

  • Wash and chop all of the salad ingredients (with a sharp knife) as small as you would like (I recommend confetti-sized) then place in a large bowl.
  • Add all of the liquid salad dressing ingredients to a blender (olive oil, lemon juice, rice vinegar). Add the rest of the dressing ingredients to the same blender.
  • Blend until your dressing is a thick, pourable consistency.
  • Pour the dressing over salad ingredients.
  • Mix well (I use tongs) and enjoy!

Notes

Melissa recommends dressing each serving individually if you aren't planning to eat it all at once. The dressing will keep in the fridge for up to a week.
