Ingredients
- Chopped Salad
-
1/3 cup
toasted sliced almonds
-
4 cups
mizuna, chopped
-
3
plums, diced
-
1/2 cup
white salad turnips, cut into little sticks
-
1/4 cup
green onions, finely diced
- Ginger Miso Dressing
-
2 tablespoons
white miso
-
2 tablespoons
rice vinegar
-
2 tablespoons
vegetable oil
-
3/4 tablespoon
ginger (fresh minced or frozen)
-
1/2 tablespoon
water
-
2 teaspoons
honey or agave
-
1 teaspoon
sesame oil
Directions
-
If your sliced almonds didn’t come toasted, place them in a small skillet over medium-low heat and toast them for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become golden-brown. Once toasted, set them aside in a dish to cool.
-
To make your dressing, place all of your ingredients into a jar or a bottle with a tightly fitting lid, shake well, and then set aside.
-
Next, prep your salad ingredients by chopping the mizuna, dicing the plums and green onions, and cutting the turnips into little sticks that are about half the size of a match stick. Toss all of the veg together in a bowl.
-
To serve, divide the greens among four plates, sprinkle with toasted almonds, and drizzle with Ginger Miso Dressing.
