Serves: 4
Yields: 4 Salad Servings
Ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups celery, diced (don't throw out those leaves)
- 2⁄3 cup baby peas, thawed (frozen works best)
- 2⁄3 cup dried cherries
- 2 scallions, diced (whites and greens)
- 6 tablespoons fresh parsley, fine chopped
- 3 tablespoons chopped pecans (I prefer to toast mine)
Dressing
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons plain yogurt
- 3 teaspoons lemon juice
- salt
- pepper
Garnish
- celery, leafs chopped fine
Directions
- Pecans -- In a small dry saute pan, add the pecans and bring to medium heat and toast for just a couple of minutes. Don't let them burn, they literally take, 1-2 minutes. Remove and set to the side.
- Salad -- Just add all the ingredients in a medium size bowl and toss well to combine. Garnish with the chopped celery leaves.
- Serve -- Just ENJOY! Try a simple roasted chicken and some hearty whole grain bread to along with this simple salad.
