Ingredients

  • 1 cup Green Goddess salad dressing
  • 2 cups baby arugala or baby kale
  • 2 cups raw snap peas or snow peas ends trimmed, thinly sliced on the diagonal into ¼-inch pieces 
  • 1 head Bibb or butter lettuce leaves separated, or 1 small head of iceberg lettuce or green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 2 small Persian cucumbers  diced, about 1½-2 cups
  • 2 scallions  thinly sliced, about ½ cup
  • 1 ripe avocado cubed

Instructions

  • Make the Green Goddess dressing. If you haven't already, make our Green Goddess salad dressing (which will keep for up to 5 days in a fridge).
  • Make the salad. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups baby arugula (or baby kale), 2 cups thinly sliced snap peas, 1 head fresh lettuce, 2 diced cucumbers, 2 thinly sliced scallions, and 1 diced avocado. Drizzle about half of the Green Goddess dressing on top, then gently toss to thoroughly mix. Taste, adjust seasoning, then add additional dressing, Kosher salt, or black pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Nutrition facts do not include salad dressing.
  • Leftover salad will keep for 2 days in the fridge, though it has the best texture just after serving.
  • Not a fan of raw peas? Blanch them in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and pat dry. Thinly slice, then add to the remaining salad ingredients.
