In this recipe, we highlight the green vegetables by quickly sautéing them in garlic and onion, adding flavor and preserving the texture.
The dressing is so simple too, and you can use any herbs you have on hand, no matter what the combination!
The blend of fresh herbs and vegetables makes for a refreshing and crisp salad that won’t wilt like a traditional lettuce salad, making it perfect for any barbecue, picnic or get-together.
