Green Goddess Summer Salad

The start of the CSA season calls for meals like this! Really, nothing says summer like a plateful of bright, organic greens with fresh ground pepper and a light but creamy dressing.

Salad:
whatever greens you have on hand (I used watercress, romaine, and green leaf lettuce)
fresh dill
thinly sliced scallions
1 T. shredded pecorino romano cheese

Dressing:
3T. non fat plain Greek yogurt
juice of 1 lemon
green goddess spice blend
2T. water

Rinse and tear up your greens and toss together. Top with the fresh chopped dill, scallions and cheese.

Combine the dressing ingredients in a mason jar or cruet and shake vigorously to blend. Then just drizzle on your lovely salad—and don't be stingy, it's fat free and sugar free, remember?!

I had this with 1/2c of cottage cheese on the side (with a little of the dressing mixed in to that, too) to make up my 27g. Happy summer!
