A light and refreshing salad with the perfect combo of veggies and crunch. Goes really well with fish, chicken, or meat. Have all ingredients, including the dressing, prepared before Yom Tov; store in bags or containers, and assemble the salad in a snap. Thanks, Mindy R.

Ingredients

Salad

  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced 

  • 1 head lettuce, cut up, or 1 bag mixed shredded lettuce 

  • 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced 

Dressing

  • 1/4 cup oil 

  • 1/8 cup distilled vinegar 

  • 2 tablespoons sugar 

  • 1 teaspoon salt 

  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper 

Nut Topping

Directions

Prepare Salad

1.

Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl.

2.

Mix dressing ingredients in a cruet or container and shake well.

3.

Pour over lettuce and veggies immediately before serving.

4.

For the nut topping, heat oil over medium heat.

5.

Add almonds and honey.

6.

Sauté until medium brown, stirring to ensure that the mixture doesn’t burn.

7.

When browned, pour onto parchment or wax paper to cool.

8.

Break up into clusters when cool and sprinkle over salad.

Tips:

To make a dietetic version of this salad, do as follows: Instead of 1/4 cup oil use one tablespoon oil and two tablespoons of water. In the topping, use just one to two teaspoons of oil. That’s how I make it, and since the salad is so flavorful, you don’t miss the oil.

Notes:

The nut topping should be made in advance. It can be stored long term in the freezer, or for two weeks in a plastic container.
