Sugar Snap Pea, Radish, Broccoli Salad with Parmesan Vinaigrette


Greek yogurt is the secret to creating a creamy yet healthy dressing that pairs perfectly with sugar snap peas, French breakfast radishes and toasted nuts.

If you wanted to add a protein for a larger meal, you could add some shredded or diced chicken.

Serves 4

Ingredients :
  • 2 cups sugar snap peas, julienne
  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 1 cup broccoli florets, cut small
  • 3 French breakfast radishes, shaved thin in circles
  • ¼ cup toasted sunflower seeds or almonds
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 cups grated Parmesan
  • Olive oil

Instructions :
  • Add the mustard, red wine vinegar, and Greek yogurt in the blender. Blend until smooth, drizzle the olive oil until it is thick, add a little water and the Parmesan cheese. Blend again until smooth, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Toast sunflower seeds or slivered almonds in a small sauce pan for 1-2 minutes.  Watch CLOSELY so they don't burn and toss around in the pan while cooking.  
  • Cut vegetables.  Mix together and toss in the vinaigrette. This can be done an hour before serving and will let the vinaigrette to absorb a bit and since there isn't any lettuce to wilt it's a nice do ahead salad. Top with the toasted nuts right before serving.
