Recipe


Ingredients

  • 1 cup flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 cup basil leaves
  • 1 cup fresh chives
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 3 tbsp hulled tahini
  • ¼ cup flaxseed oil
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp raw honey
  • ¼ cup green tahini dressing
  • Handful walnuts
  • 50g goat’s cheese
  • Handful chopped cherry tomatoes
  • Handful flat-leaf parsley
  • ½ avocado, diced
  • 2 handfuls fresh rocket

Method


  • Add all of the dressing ingredients to a high-powered blender. Blend into a smooth paste and pour into a glass jar. Keep it in the fridge for up to one week; the lemon juice helps to preserve the vibrant colour of the herbs.
  • For the salad, use a large jar. Start the first layer with the green tahini dressing, then follow with the walnuts, goat’s cheese, cherry tomatoes, parsley, avocado and fresh rocket.
  • Place the lid on and store in the fridge.
  • Just before serving, remove the lid and tip the contents of the jar onto a plate. Toss together and enjoy your salad.
