Total Time15 minutes

Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 4 cups packed spinach baby kale, or a mix
  • 1/2 cup shelled pistachios
  • 1 cup chopped broccoli florets cut into small, bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup shelled and cooked edamame
  • 1 medium cucumber sliced
  • 1 large avocado sliced

For the Creamy Avocado Dressing:

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine spinach/kale, pistachios, broccoli, edamame, cucumber, and avocado. Drizzle salad with your choice of dressing. If you want to go green all the way, sever with Creamy Avocado Dressing. Recipe is below.
  • For the Creamy Avocado Dressing, in a blender, add the minced garlic, avocado, lemon juice, and olive oil. Process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides a few times. If the dressing is too thick, you can add a little water until you reach the your desired consistency. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Serve with salad! The dressing will keep in the fridge for about a week.
