Preparation

Step 1

Puree all the dressing ingredients together, adding the cilantro last and stopping when the texture feels right to you. I went for little green flecks of cilantro and scallion throughout.

Toss the salad ingredients together with dressing; serve immediately.

NOTES
Okay okay, I know, technically this isn’t a “detox” salad because I included a small amount of feta and Greek yogurt. But it’s close enough for me, and if it’s not close enough for you, it’s also really easy to omit both of those ingredients. For the dressing, just increase the amount of oil and acid slightly and/or use almond butter to thicken. Enjoy!
