100g
1/4 cup fresh parsley
16g
1/2 cup basil leaves
3.50g
2 tbsp vinegar
30g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1/2 cup olive oil
120g
1/4 cup greek yogurt
60g
4 cups lettuce
300g
1/3 cup pecans
40g
1/3 cup feta cheese

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Green Goddess Dressing:
1. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, fresh parsley, basil leaves, vinegar, garlic cloves, olive oil, and Greek yogurt.
2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (a pinch of salt and pepper can be added to taste).
3. Transfer the dressing to a small bowl or container and set aside.
2. Prepare the Lettuce:
1. Wash and dry the lettuce thoroughly. If using a whole head of iceberg lettuce, chop it into bite-sized pieces or wedges.
2. Arrange the lettuce on a large serving platter or in individual bowls.
3. Assemble the Salad:
1. Drizzle the prepared Green Goddess dressing generously over the lettuce.
2. Sprinkle the pecans and crumbled feta cheese evenly over the salad.
4. Serve:
1. Serve immediately. Enjoy the crispness of the lettuce paired with the rich and tangy Green Goddess dressing, crunchy pecans, and salty feta cheese.

Tips:

- Ensure your avocado is ripe for a creamier dressing.

- For a thicker consistency, you can add more Greek yogurt or reduce the amount of olive oil.

- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice in place of vinegar for a different tangy flavor.

- Toast the pecans for a few minutes to enhance their natural flavor and add crunch to the salad.

- You can substitute the iceberg lettuce with other greens like romaine or mixed greens if desired.

- Feel free to add other toppings like cherry tomatoes or cucumber slices for additional freshness.

There you have it—Iceberg with green goddess dressing, a versatile and flavorful salad that's both satisfying and nutritious. With its vibrant colors and rich taste, it's sure to become a favorite in your household.
