Veggie Ribbon Salad Recipes

VEGGIE RIBBON SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk the oil, lemon juice and smoked paprika together in a large bowl with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Use a Y-shaped vegetable peeler to thinly slice the carrot, yellow squash and zucchini into ribbons. (With the yellow squash and zucchini, it is easiest to slice the sides, working around and then discarding the core.)
• Add the vegetable ribbons, asparagus, parsley and chives to the bowl with the vinaigrette and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.

VEGGIE RIBBON SALAD WITH ANY NUT PESTO DRESSING

Steps:

• Put the nuts in a small dry skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes; transfer to a plate to cool.
• Combine the nuts, basil, parsley, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor and pulse until very finely ground. With the motor running, gradually add the olive oil and process until well combined.
• Use a Y-shaped vegetable peeler to slice the vegetables into ribbons. With the yellow squash and zucchini, it is easiest to slice the sides, working around the core (and then discarding the core). Toss the vegetable ribbons together in a bowl. Add just enough pesto to lightly coat, then add the lemon juice and Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve immediately (any remaining pesto can be kept refrigerated for up to 1 week).

Steps:

• Cut the ends off the zucchini. With a vegetable peeler, shave off as many thin slices as possible and transfer a large bowl. Repeat with the yellow squash and carrots.

• Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
• Make the pesto: Add the basil, parsley, cashews, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil to a food processor and process until smooth.
• Spoon the pesto onto the shaved vegetables and mix well with tongs until fully coated and serve.
