Bet you didn’t know I could cook? Well, I can! And it’s the easiest way for me to relax, reflect on the day, and re-energize for the next. Here’s my recipe for Green Garden Salad. It’s packed full of veggies and topped with a spicy-citrusy dressing that’ll make getting your greens in so easy! Check out the process below.
Recipe:
Salad Dressing
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 mayo (I don’t recommend Miracle Whip as a replacement)
- 1 jalapeno, deseeded
- 1/3 cup chives
- 1/2 garlic clove
- Zest of 1 lime
Blend all ingredients together in a blender and store in a sealed jar.
Salad
- 2 large beef tomatoes, wedged
- 1/4 cup shallots, thinly sliced
- 1/4 chives, finely chopped
- 3 cobs of roasted corn (coat with olive oil and corn seasoning evenly and roast)
- 1 avocado, diced
- Juice of 1 lime
Corn Seasoning (combine the following):
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Mix it all together and wah-lah — you’ve got yourself a fresh Green Garden Salad. What would you like to see me whip up next? Let me know in the comments below!
