Chopped Green Salad with Chive Vinaigrette

on March 24, 2010 · 2 Comments

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

This salad is simple and you can substitute in any ingredient.  I like to keep all the ingredients “green” to make it very earthy and fresh! I added fresh kiwis to this one, but you could add color like radishes to really make it a beautiful table piece.

This one is for you Mercedes!

Chopped Green Salad with Chive Vinaigrette

Ingredients
Chopped Green Salad
  • 1 head of lettuce, Boston, bibb, red or green leaf lettuces, coarsely chopped (approx. 5-6 cups)
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped (include celery heart leaves)
  • 2-4 tablespoons chives, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cucumber, chopped (I like English cucumbers here)
  • 1 avocado, peeled, cored and chopped (see my tutorial on how to prepare an avocado)
Chive Vinaigrette
  • ¼ cup chives, minces
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 teaspoons honey (or 1½ teaspoon blue agave nectar)
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
Salad
  1. Combine all ingredients and drizzle with Chive Vinaigrette.
  2. Toss to coat and season with salt and pepper.
Vinaigrette
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients except oil. Slowly add the oil, whisking vigorously, until the vinaigrette is emulsified (well blended).
  2. Vinaigrette will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. If you add fresh chives to small amounts of the dressing right before you use it, the dressing base will last longer.

    Kelly,

    Thank you so much for this. I really love your recipes. They make me hungry but also inspire me to cook. I am so sorry I didn’t stop earlier. I did see this post yesterday but have been having so much going on. But I wanted you to know that you “dedicating” this recipe to me brightened my day yesterday. you are too sweet. Thank you so much,

    Mercedes
