SIMPLE GREEN SALAD WITH HERB VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- To make the salad: rinse the lettuce in chilled water. Remove from water, wrap in damp paper towels and refrigerate.
- Marinate the cucumber, celery, squash, carrots, tomatoes, and onions, separately, with the herb vinaigrette. Cover each, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Slice the tortillas into 4-inch long, thin, triangular strips.
- In a large pan, add 1/2-inch of oil and heat. When the oil is hot, fry the tortillas until they are crisp. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, season, and let cool.
- Place the lettuce in a large bowl. Add the marinated vegetables and toss with some more of the Herbed Vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the crispy tortilla strips.
- To make the dressing: in a small food processor, combine all ingredients and blend for 45 seconds to 1 minute until emulsified.
SCOOPABLE GREEN CHOPPED SALAD
Is it a salad or is it a dip? Inspired by Melissa Ben-Ishay's (@bakedbymelissa) TikTok viral chopped salad, this vibrant crunchy-creamy dish is a salad, but it's meant to be scooped up with chips--not a fork. Don't be surprised that there's tons of dressing: that's intentional (and what makes it so perfectly scoopable).
