Description

A green salad with mushrooms, scallions, and almonds that you’ll want to eat every day. Tossed with a zesty dijon mustard and basil dressing.


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup avocado oil (or other neutral flavored oil)
  • 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbs dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbs fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 Tbs dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 cups lettuce, chopped or torn to smaller pieces
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chiffonade
  • 8 oz fresh white button mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 scallions, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sliced or slivered almonds or finely chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Start by preparing the dressing. Combine the oil, white wine vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, dried basil, and salt into a jar or bowl and whisk until combined. Set to the side.
  • Prepare the salad by combining the lettuce, fresh basil, fresh mushrooms, scallions, and almonds in a large salad bowl.
  • When you’re ready to serve the salad, add as much dressing as you like to the greens and toss to combine.
  • Serve right away. Once the salad is dressed, it will start to wilt if it sits for more than an hour.
