Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens (lettuce, spinach, arugula)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (chives or parsley)
  • Green Goddess Dressing: 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sour cream, 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 garlic clove, 2 tbsp fresh parsley, 1 tbsp fresh chives, 1 tbsp fresh tarragon (or a mix), salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C). Toss cauliflower florets with 2 Tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast 20–25 min until golden and tender, stirring halfway. Cool slightly.
  2. While cauliflower roasts, prepare dressing: combine Greek yogurt (or mayo), sour cream, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, chives, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Blend or whisk until smooth.
  3. In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, diced avocado, cherry tomatoes, and toasted almonds.
  4. Add slightly cooled roasted cauliflower.
  5. Drizzle with Green Goddess dressing and toss gently to combine.
  6. Garnish with extra fresh herbs and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Make dressing ahead—store in fridge up to 3 days.
  • Substitute Greek yogurt with mayonnaise for richer flavor.
  • Add protein like grilled chicken, shrimp, or chickpeas for a heartier salad.
  • Replace almonds with pumpkin seeds or walnuts for variation.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle crumbled feta or goat cheese on top.
