Green And Gold Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk 1 minced shallot, 1 tablespoon each whole-grain mustard and lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Whisk in 1/3 cup olive oil. Toss with 1 torn romaine heart, 1 torn head Bibb lettuce and 1/2 bunch chopped chives.

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix all together, chill and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Steam the asparagus until crisp-tender and plunge into cold water to stop cooking. Zest the orange and then peel and cut into segments, (catch any juice in a bowl and also squeeze any remaining juice from what is left after segmenting). Peel and seed the avocado and cut into chunks.
• 2. Place all of the salad ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside to make vinaigrette.
• 3. In a small bowl, whisk all vinaigrette ingredients together except salt,pepper and oil. Whisk oil in slowly until emulsified. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking. If the oranges are tart, you might want to add a little sugar. Or you may want to increase mustard slightly. Just make it to your taste.
• 4. Toss salad ingredients with some of the dressing to coat, and serve as is or on a small bed of greens. Pass any remaining dressing.

Steps:

• For the dressing: Add the spinach, hummus, olive oil, pesto, honey, salt, pepper and lemon zest and juice to a small blender, then blend until smooth.
• For the salad: Add the romaine, kale, peas, Pecorino Romano, basil, cucumber, scallion, avocado and green pepper to a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to combine. Transfer to a serving platter or bowl.

Steps:

• Line a large plate with paper towels. Set aside. Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the snap peas, and cook until just tender, about 90 seconds. Use a strainer to remove the peas onto the prepared plate, and spread out in a single layer. Allow to cool and dry completely (the dressing won't stick to a wet snap pea). Cut each pea in half crosswise on the bias.
• In a large bowl, combine the snap peas, romaine, cucumbers and green onions. Mix well to combine. Add the avocado and about half the dressing. Mix gently with your hands until the salad is well coated with dressing, adding more if necessary. Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve cold, immediately. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 1 week.
