This time of year is my favorite for making pretty salads with lots of fresh ingredients that are perfect for light lunches with girlfriends. I really love a green salad with fresh herb dressing, simple deviled eggs and a sweet green smoothie on the side. It’s light, but flavorful, and leaves you feeling satisfied but not overly stuffed. If I could have this lunch every day, I would! This salad would also be a great addition to your Easter menu.

Ingredients

Salad

2 Heads of Butter lettuce

2 Sliced Avocados

1/2 Cup Sliced English Cucumber

4-5 Sliced Radish

1/4 Cup Thinly Sliced Red Onion

1/4 Cup Peas

Sliced Almonds for Topping

Dressing

1 Cup Whole Fat Greek Yogurt

1/4 Cup Olive Oil

1 Tablespoon Vinegar (I use champagne vinegar but any kind will do)

2 Cloves Finely Chopped Garlic

1/4 Cup Chopped Chives

1/4 Cup Chopped Parsley

1/8 Cup Chopped Tarragon

1/8 Cup Chopped Dill

Salt & Pepper to Taste

Instructions

Chop and combine all of the salad ingredients. Mix together the salad dressing and dress the salad right before serving. I love to pair this salad with simple deviled eggs using the same herbs that are in the salad dressing. This is a great deviled egg recipe that’s simple enough to combine with any herb mixture you have.

Happy Spring!
