Green Goddess Salad

Ingredients

For the salad

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

For the dressing

  • 1 cup basil leaves
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 small shallot
  • lemons, juiced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup nuts of your choice (I used raw, unsalted cashews and walnuts)
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 
  • Any extra chives you have on hand (optional)

How to Make the Green Goddess Salad

  1. Wash and chop all of the salad ingredients with a sharp knife as small as you would like (I recommend confetti-sized). Place in a large bowl.
  2. 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.
  3. Blend until your dressing is a thick, pourable consistency. 
  4. Pour the dressing over salad ingredients. 
  5. Mix well and enjoy!
