Roasted Portobello and Mixed Green Salad with Radishes and Yogurt-Dill Dressing
INGREDIENTS
Salad
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 portobello mushroom caps
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Pinch of sea salt
Pinch of pepper
3 handfuls arugula or other salad greens, washed and dried
2 watermelon radishes, thinly sliced
1 avocado, sliced in half, skin removed, cut into slices
Dressing
1/2 cup plain plain yogurt (siggi’s plain yogurt recommended)
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tsp fresh dill, chopped
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Brush the olive oil and balsamic vinegar onto the mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay the mushrooms on the baking sheet, gills down. Bake for 15 minutes.
While the mushrooms are baking, prepare the low-sugar yogurt-dill dressing. Combine siggi’s plain yogurt, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Add the olive oil and whisk it until smooth. If it’s too thick, add a little more lemon juice and/or olive oil until you have reached the desired consistency.
Add the greens together to a bowl and top with radishes and dressing. Toss to coat. Remove the portobellos from the oven and place them on top of the salad. Top with avocado and serve.
